    Obviously CONMEBOL is the rockingest confederation. It's got the
    most competitive League Championships.

    It's also got the fewest League Championships. Logic dictates that
    among 55 different leagues you'll find more streaks than among 10.

    Also, how does this square with your regular disdain for the
    English Premiership? The longest championship streak there is 3
    (which Man City could extend this year).

    Could and should... Arsenal being top (once again) shouldn't provide
    much of a challenge after what happened last year.

    But yeah, only three consecutive English league titles in a league
    competition that [originally] commenced in 1888 is VERY
    competitive... and beats the 6 of those South American leagues that
    Mark loves so much.
