The article was inspired by Ovechkin breaking Gretzky's all-time goal scoring record.

Then he goes on to list these that he considers to be Untouchable Sports Records:
"That's all he wrote." This really is all that he included. I looked for a "Part 1 of X" notice but did not find any.

So, this list seems WOEFULLY inadequate! There's some interesting stuff in here but it's hard to fathom the guy getting paid for this article.

What are some other Untouchable Sports Records, in your estimation? Cy Young, anybody?
Immediately off the top of my head...

Cal Ripken Jr's consecutive games record and Joe DiMaggio's hitting streak.
