Nicknamed the Harbaugh Bowl,
HarBowl, SuperBaugh and the
Brother Bowl, this will be the first
Super Bowl featuring opposing head
coaching brothers, Baltimore's John
Harbaugh and San Francisco's
Jim Harbaugh, whose clubs previously
met in a 2011 Thanksgiving Classic, in
which John's Ravens won, 16–6. The
Ravens, after finishing the 2012 regular
season with a 10–6 record, are making
their second Super Bowl, having
previously won Super Bowl XXXV.
Ray Lewis, the MVP from that game,
returns for this game, which he has said
will be his last before his retirement
from professional football. The 49ers
enter the game seeking their sixth Super
Bowl win in team history (and first
since Super Bowl XXIX), which would
tie the Pittsburgh Steelers with the most
Super Bowl wins, after going 5–0 in
their previous appearances. San Francisco finished the regular season at
11–4–1.

Presidents Day Feb. 18th
To some, the observance of Presidents'
Day in the United
States goes very
much unnoticed.
Local newspapers
splash ads of “President’s Day Sales!” and
many get the day off from work. But have
you ever stopped to think about this important day of recognition?
Presidents' Day is intended to honor all the
American presidents, but most significantly George Washington and Abraham
Lincoln.
