ravinmaniac52 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 The Harbaugh family is planning a little preseason get-together. This edition of Brother-to-Brother will take place prior to the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers facing off in their Week 1 preseason meeting on Aug. 7. The Sacramento Bee's Matt Barrows reported Friday that Jim Harbaugh's 49ers are planning to travel to Maryland to practice with and scrimmage John Harbaugh's Ravens before the preseason edition of the Harbowl. It's not unusual during the preseason for teams to work together and scrimmage prior to their meaningless matchups. However, it's just more interesting when it's the Harbaugh brothers going at each other. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000342259/article/report-49ers-ravens-plan-to-scrimmage-prior-to-preseason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmax Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I bet they do it the week leading up to their pre season game. This should be very good because both teams don't like each other. Hatred breeds great competition which get's you in the best shape for the regular season. "Who's got it better than us!?!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thundercleetz Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Ugh I always think of Jamal Lewis and the scrimmage against the Redskins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldno82 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 The more I think about this, the more I think it stinks. We're trying to install a new offense, get the new OC acclimated, get the O-line guys practicing and learning together, and trying to keep everybody healthy. I don't look at it as a good time to put on a 'family football show' just to satisfy the Harbaugh's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ravens don't have a bunch of pussies on their roster and they know dirty and physical better than the Whinners.They can't get great playing against the cannon fodder of the league.

vmax Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 The 49ers will remain in Baltimore to practice against the Ravens until Monday afternoon.“I called Jim about a month ago and asked him if he wanted to do it, and I wasn’t really sure if he’d want to,” Harbaugh said Friday. “And he was like, ‘Absolutely. Let’s do it.’”After the game Thursday, the teams will hold a light practice at M&T Bank Stadium Friday afternoon. The 49ers will then travel to Owings Mills and they will have three days of practice at the Under Armour Performance Center.“We’ve been trying to figure out the last four weeks or so how we’d set it up, and we decided to do it after the first game,” Harbaugh said. “We felt like the first two weeks we needed to do our install process and it would be better after the game. Nobody has really done one after the game that I’m aware of, so this will be the first time.”In addition to John and Jim coming together for the few days of practice, their father Jack is also planning to attend. “He’s going to be the unofficial official,” Harbaugh joked. “He’s going to be in charge of breaking up all fights – different brotherly scuffles. If we start rolling around on the field my dad is going to have to jump in I guess.“It’s going to be fantastic. We just can’t wait to do it.” The Owings Mills police are going to be busy.

papasmurfbell Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 This is what they can do when eliminating 2 preseason games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thundercleetz Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 This is what they can do when eliminating 2 preseason games.I agree. So for the lost revenue from two games, would you have these scrimmages held at the home team's stadium and charge an open admission price for the scrimmage?

papasmurfbell Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 You wouln't lose rev from the 2 games. The tix remain sold. They are just turned into regular season games. A team could sell tix to the scrimmage. I would give it away for free if I were the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
