Well decades TECHNICALLY are 2000-2009, but some would argue and thus why I said that.

some people will argue that a decade is actually 2001-2010.

Doesn't really matter, I just remember someone on here arguing if the year 2000 should be included or not.

I thought it was HGM

If you start in 2001, Pujols by his production this year.

oh I know, technically, the new Millennium and century started on Jan. 1, 2001. But everything I know and can find seems to state a decade is 2000-2009

The term usually refers to a period of ten years starting with 0 and ending in 9. For example, "the 1950s" refers to 1950 through to 1959 (inclusive)

According to the Gregorian calendar, the 1st century AD started on January 1, 1 and ended on December 31, 100. The 2nd century started at year 101, the third at 201, etc. The n-th century started/will start on the year 100×n - 99. A century will only include one year, the centennial year, that starts with the century's number (e.g. 1900 is the final year in the 19th century).

I second this. Sorry dude, Albert used them pretty heavily, he admitted last year

Would you rather have Griffey up until the age of 30, or Pujols?

Pujols. Although, if someone said Griffey it wouldn't be crazy. Griffey gives you 2 extra years, better base running and plays the harder position.
