Tonight at Hindsight

An underdog paid out tonight

The Bookie: “I had the other side at LAA +125. @kizzle took it anyway. I hate this job.”

Hindsight: “@ppeterson takes it — 11/15 with Pitching first, 40 pts.”

Bandwagon: “3 of you beat all of us? Fine. I'm a fan of @The_Chosen_One and @TopShelfPicks now. Always have been.”

The Bookie: “7/15, 25 pts. Some nights you write the line, some nights the line writes you.”

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.
