In popular culture its firmly the Yankees and the Crimson Tide football for dynasties.
No one else is really in that discussion, and I'm not really sure anyone can achieve that kind of status anymore as its so tied up in history rather then just being good on the field.
There's lots of good teams that run below the cultural radar LSU baseball, Arkansas Track, etc..., but none will achieve that iconic status. UCLA basketball is certainly remarkable for Wooden's run, but it was a fairly compact run and they certainly have never been that good before or since. Kentucky, Duke, Kansas, and UNC been consistent in basketball but haven't been consistent champions
