MMA/Boxing Bets Chatter thread

anyone seen the "round robin" parlay option on 5dimes? First time I have seen it, it looks interesting... I need to do the math, but it looks like a nice way to hedge out a little in case one of your bets loses.. the payout is only slightly less, but seems like it would mitigate the risk substantially

5u to win .60u on "Not Barnett by submission/Not Overeem by submission"

Cormier 4u to win 1.11

Werdum .5u to win 1.45

that is supposed to be "not Rogers by submission"

Is that what you meant to put down Scientist? Not Barnett by submission?

I'm sure he meant Rogers.

How the hell do you not know how to use Excel?

I had to learn some really basic shit for a computer literacy course I had to take my first semester when I started back to school, but really I just haven't taken the time to fuck with it.

Well business people work on excel and they might need help. If the IT/networking guy isnt going to help people with excel and word who would?

In my field experience, the only kind of issues we were supposed to concern ourselves with was if something didn't work. So if Word or Excel won't open or they're giving an error or something, then that's where we come in. But if it comes down to actually doing something inside the program they need to go pick up a Dummies book. Not our job.

What exactly did your school focus on? They taught us how to tear apart and rebuild computers , set up and repair networks, and how to help with excel/word.

It was pretty certification focused.

So the first 6 months were focused on getting ready for the A+ certification--three months learning about hardware for the hardware test, three months on software for the OS test.

Then three months learning basic networking to get ready for the Network+ cert.

Then the remaining 15 months were focused on network administration and engineering, especially from a Windows Server perspective in order to learn what we needed to know for the MCSE cert (Microsoft's network engineering certification).

Well what does Excel have to do with networking? Nothing, really.

There wasn't really any focus on end-user applications.

I'm kind of serious.

I never really learned to use Excel very well. So I just write everything down in a spiral notebook.

How did you go to school for computer networking and not learn excel? I took 2 quarters of computer networking and had to learn excel while I was there
