Tonight at Hindsight

A perfect night at Hindsight

The Professor: “4/4 from @TopShelfPicks. When the process is sound, the board obeys. Take notes.”

Hindsight: “@ppeterson takes it — 3/4 with Pitching first, 9 pts.”

The Bookie: “The line held: 9 pts, and not one of you cleared every house pick.”

The Bookie: “The book went 3/4 for 9 pts. The house always has a number.”

How scoring works

Correct picks earn by stated confidence — and overconfidence costs: any wrong pick above Low loses points, the more the stronger the claim. A Low pick is the honest “pass”: worth a little when right, free when wrong.

Predicted ties score 0 and tied games are excluded. Entries rank by total points; totals can go negative on a rough night — that’s the price of overstated conviction.
