Okay, Captain CAPS, did you put anything down for Bonus? I tend to disregard anything written in all caps as valuable, so I just skimmed through this. It looks like you should get points of some sort since a pick for the Titans would have been a winning one. What exactly happened? What did you put, what did you get, etc?

And try lowercase.

Unless they've changed the format from the last couple of years, it's positive points only.  You don't get any points for losing picks, and for winning picks you get one point for the win plus however many bonus points you put on that game.

I guess it's a strategy call

I see no negative points awarded at all.  I assume only positive points, which means to always use all the bonus points, I guess.

I have the same question. I searched the website and can not find any rules for the game. Hopefully someone can shed some light on this for us.

First time using the bonus points.  If your pick loses, do you subtract bonus points from your score?  Or is it positive points only.....losers are just disregarded.
