Fangio in the mid 50's was virtually unbeatable.

Collingwood in the VFL/AFL.  No team has been hated by so many for so long.

Red Auerbach's Boston Celtics in the 1950s and 1960s deserve a mention.

If your going down team sports, then UCLA Bruins and their basketball success under John Wooden need to be mentioned. Won 10 NCAA Championships from 1964 to 1975, including 7 in a row from 1967 to 1973. Bear in mind college teams can only be together for 4 years max, this is some achievement from Wooden.

Vincent O'Brien the Irishman who most dominated his sport. Dominated one version of it, then took up another and dominated that.
Arkle (they had to re-calibrate the sport to give others a chance against him).
Bob Beamon's world record stood for nearly 23 years.
I never missed a penalty in soccer.

Red Auerbach's Boston Celtics in the 1950s and 1960s deserve a mention.

I think even Auerbach would admit that "Bill Russell's Boston Celtics" is more apt- 11 titles in 13 years, with his last 2 (I think) coming as player-coach.

Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls' 6 in 6 full seasons (broken by his first retirement), and the fact that he never lost in the NBA Finals deserves a mention.
