Summary

The Harbaugh family sure knows how to throw a Super party. In the end, it was older brother John Harbaugh and his Baltimore Ravens who came out on top, hanging on for a 34-31 win over Jim Harbaugh and his San Francisco 49ers in a Super Bowl that had everything.

The leadup to this game was all about the Harbaughs — the first time siblings had coached against each other in the championship game. Every day for nearly two weeks, the two were asked about each others' careers — John was forthcoming, Jim not so much. Even their parents got in the act with their own news conferences.

The Harbaugh family theme was: "Who has it better than us?"

Certainly no family in the NFL.

"I'm just happy it was such a great game," Jackie Harbaugh said. "I'm happy for John. I know how much Jim wanted this game, too. That's the way they are. It was right down to the bitter end, really. It's all in the family, so that's nice, and after this day's over, they'll go back to work."
