To win 14 consecutive years, it's like Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak - it's a record that never will be broken. He has done it with tremendous turnover in roster. He has done it under difficult circumstances. He has done it with rookies. He has done it with veterans. He just does it year after year after year.
