Harbaughs Ready For Super Bowl

Jim and John Harbaugh held their first press conference together on Friday morning, just two days before their respective teams face off in the Super Bowl. For the most part, the brothers acted as they always do. John, dressed in suit and tie, was more outgoing and jovial with the reporters. Jim was his usual reserved self and seemed content to let his brother do most of the talking. There weren't many enlightening questions and therefore not many enlightening answers (when a reporter asks whether they will have a post-game handshake or bear hug, you know you're not getting Frost/Nixon here). More here.

Question: Were you and any of your siblings sports rivals?
