Diving World Series
What is the Longest Sports Dynasty of any kind in the history of sports?
After looking at the various responses to this question that have been posted I’ve seen the following:
The L.A. Lakers – NBA
Boston Celtics – NBA
New York Yankees – MLB
Edmonton Oilers – NHL
Montreal Canadiens – NHL
New England Patriots – NFL
San Fransisco 49ers – NFL
Of these I’d have to say the Yankees at 26 World Series Titles until I came across this really good New York Times Article, I encourage people to read it:

I think even the Yankees have been trumped by Kenyon College in Swimming and Diving: 29 consecutive national men’s team championships and 22 overall women’s crowns in his 33 years totaling 47 NCAA Div. III titles.
The banners behind the lights in the upper center of the photograph stretch across the entire 50 meter length of the pool, each one is an NCAA Title.
Before I read your list I was thinking “professional” teams. My first choice would be the New York Yankees.
In addition to their 26 World Series victories they ruled for 10 of 12 years when Joe DiMaggio played back in the late 40′s and early 50′s.
I knew there were many records held by amateur and college teams but I couldn’t name them.
Very impressive and good question.
