All of UCLA's NCAA titles came between the years 1964-1975. Only one championship, 1995, was outside of that parameter. Therefore, UCLA is not as dominant or as good of a program as Kentucky.

The Yankees are the winningest AL team by a long shot. They've also won 27 World Championships. The Giants have over 10,000 wins, but only have 6 titles. Over the past 85 years, the Cardinals have been the best National League franchise because they have won 10 World Championships during that time. The Dodgers have won 6 titles, so they are next after the Cardinals during that streak.

You have to be picky when discussing the greatest teams. Will any team match UCLA's total of National Championships over a period of 12 seasons? Probably not. Will one eventually break their record of total championships won? Maybe, and if it happens, it will be Kentucky who does it because they are the closest team to amassing that total record.

If you would rather win meaningless games than championship games, feel free. But give me the championship record over the win record any day.

Could it be because the Yankees have both the American League record for wins AS WELL AS the league record for World Championships? They have a double kabosh on everyone.

I love championships...but at the same time, there is that part where the team with the most wins/highest winning percentage/winning record against its arch rival, who happens to have the most championships sounds good too. The Packers have had about as many bad periods as they have good. The Bears have had more good periods than have the Packers. And, the Bears have won more consistently. So, I guess I have to go with the team that wins the most consistently over the years over the championships, because after all, the team with the most wins/highest winning percentage can always catch up to the team with the most championships.

A good example of this is the Braves vs Marlins.. braves won 13 straight division titles,but only one ring.. marlins won 2.. but sucked in between..not sure would want to be an under .500 team with a few great years.. VS consistently very good but one less championship.. Its not as black and white as you are tying t make it out(and trying to get a bear fan to praise the packers).

It will be a cold day in hell when I praise the Packers.
