For the Harbaugh family, Saturday will be a day that gets remembered for a long, long time. Not just because the NFL teams John and Jim coach won divisional round playoff games, either. Their brother-in-law, Indiana men's basketball coach, Tom Crean, won his game earlier in the morning too. The big winners, Jack and Jackie Harbaugh, watched all three from their basement in Wisconsin. "They had one of those days where Indiana beat Minnesota in a big basketball game. And then they watched (Baltimore coach) John's game, an exciting, winning, thrilling game for the Ravens," Jim Harbaugh said of his parents. "And then our game. So, my parents are in their 70s. That's a lot of excitement. That's a lot of action. "That's like going back-to-back-to-back like three '24' episodes in a row. It's not easy." For the second straight season, the Brothers Harbaugh have their teams a game away from the Super Bowl and both teams will ha...

O Brother, Where art thou?
The Harbaugh brothers, Jim and John, are each, for the second consecutive year, one step from the Super Bowl. That is pretty, pretty good. No?

Jim Harbaugh has done pretty well for himself in the NFL, going 24-7-1 and making it to the NFC Championship Game in both of his years as head coach of the San Francisco 49ers.
But when it comes to comparing himself to older brother John Harbaugh, who is 54-26 with three AFC Championship Game visits over five years with the Ravens, Jim won’t concede that he’s in the same class...
49ers seek to break long road playoff drought
SAN FRANCISCO -- For a team as storied as the San Francisco 49ers, it sure has been awhile since the last time they won a road playoff game. Jan. 8, 1989, to be exact. The 49ers traveled to Chicago, where they beat the Bears 28-3 at Solider Field as a pit stop on their way to the Super Bowl title in New Orleans. It wasn't until later that year when rookie running back LaMichael...

The obvious NFL story line is a remake: the potential for a Harbaugh vs. Harbaugh clash in the Super Bowl.
