We're Going Streaking

As a follow-up to Sinickal's last post, I thought that I would countdown the 5 greatest streaks in sports. Since this topic should need no explanation, let's dive right in, in reverse order.

5. Chicago Cubs - 99 years - Most years making fans say "Wait 'til Next Year". Although some may have caught "Fukudome Fever", don't expect this streak to be broken this year. For every great team that the Cubs put together, there is always a Leon Durham, a Steve Bartman or a Dusty Baker to bail out the rest of the league. That and Aramis Ramirez will probably hit 35 homers and miss 45 games this year.

4. Christian Laetnner - 1 stomping - Most times stomping on a player from an opposing team (Aminu Timberlake for example) in the NCAA tournament while not (a) being ejected; (b) having a technical foul called on him; (c) having any type of foul called on him; or (d) having any punishment doled out to him in any way, shape or form, and going on to hit the last second shot that carries his team into the Final Four over a team with a bunch of quality guys playing above their heads that actually deserved to go to the Final Four after everything they did to ressurect their storied program. Phew. And no, I am not bitter.

3. Byron Nelson - 11 tournaments - Most consecutive PGA tournament wins in a row. Although Tiger certainly has the talent to do something like this, the number of really good players at the PGA level will keep this from happening ever again. Plus, with the Masters around the corner it's almost time to start talking golf.

2. A. C. Green - 1,192 games - Most consecutive NBA games played without having sex. This streak is so remarkable simply because it will never be broken again. Some future hotshot (or not so hotshot) may play as many games in a row, but certainly not without succombing to the fairer sex at some point during that streak.

1. Adam "Pacman" Jones - 233 weeks (and still going) - Most consecutive weeks of attending at least one strip club. Enough said.
