Winning Streaks...Tiger or the Rockets?

I was watching the Masters par three tournament this afternoon and thinking about how Tiger was going to do this week at Augusta. It also reminded me of a converstation I recently had with some friends about his seven tournament winning streak. To see how the players on tour hit the golf ball and then witness Tiger dominate is overwhelming. I mean how good is this guy to be able to pull off the shots each week to win. It's amazing!

One of my friends then asked me. What I thought was harder to do, win seven straight professional golf tournaments or put together 22 straight wins in the NBA as the Rockets recently did? That was an interesting thought.

The Rockets showed everyone how a team working together can accomplish great things. To create even a lofter status, it's hard to believe only one other team in the history of the NBA has had more consecutive wins than the Rockets. But I believe Tigers streak is harder because he is doing it all by himself. He can't afford to have an off day and rely on someone else to pick him up. I also think this week he will win again and get another green jacket at The Masters. By the way, you will see the first major of the year on Channel 11 this weekend.
