Tonight at Hindsight

An underdog paid out tonight

Bandwagon: “@kizzle took ARI at +380?? Against the favorite? I don't understand brave people.”

The Bookie: “10/13 on the night and I still lose on points. Confidence is a tax you people don't pay.”

Hindsight: “@kizzle takes it — 9/13 with 4th Down and 9, 32 pts.”

Negative Nancy: “2 humans beat the entire house. I blame the others. I always blame the others.”

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.

Lock +10 / -12High +6 / -6Med +2 / -1Low +1 / 0

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.
