heywoodu 13,609 Posted December 14, 2019 #52 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Best sports moments of the decade thread - where we can discuss anything from geopolitical history to IndyCar racing, as long as it has nothing to do with the best sports moments of the decade.

Zonderland was in 2012, I really don't see how that falls outside of the decade in any way whatsoever Plus, it is just generally accepted the decades start at 0. The fifties didn't start in 1951, the eighties started in 1980, and so on.

dcro 10,189 Posted December 14, 2019 #57 Share Posted December 14, 2019 But anyway, this is all fun and well, but there are no 'opinions' and 'arguments' in math. It is what it is. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand you're an ideallistic teenager willing to fight anyone over anything. Gregorian calendar isn't up for debate though, sorry my friend. Some wiser people have decided that discussion for us long before time - well, in 16th century (plus simple maths and the fact Year 0 never happened). The status of Pluto is up for debate instead. You can talk whether it's a planet or a dwarf planet (I kinda don't care as astronomy is not my thing) and put an opinion forward. I know you can tell a difference between Africa and actual countries but it's the classic stereotype you're following. You don't have to pretend Americans aren't narcisstic enough You elected the biggest narcisstic guy as President after all. Yes, when I think of intelligence I immediately think of the century where half the world still thought Satan caused mental illness, where spirits where probably real, when I could get a leeching, and when people where still debating if the Earth orbited the sun.

I just know either your or @dcro would say this . Technically that decade would have been 2006-2016 using the method everyone seems to think is correct. “Sport has the power to change the world.

Columbus sailed to Haiti and thought he was in India. He must have not known a thing about intelligence either? You still have some statues of this schmuck in there?
