NFL’s longest active playoff streak is the buffalo bills.  They’ve been to the playoffs for 7 consecutive seasons, after a 17 season drought.

NBA’s longest active playoff streak is the Boston Celtics. They are up to 12 consecutive postseasons with the current one.

I don't have a good trivia question around this, but Munetaka Murakami is becoming the king of three true outcomes.

Quote:He has yet to contribute any doubles or triples, making him the first player since at least 1900 to slam more than 10 homers before picking up any other kind of extra-base hit to begin his career.
