The Jarvinen brothers.
Aki won Olympic decathlon silver twice. Matti set the javelin WR ten times.
The Kolehmainen brothers.
Hannes was a three-time Olympic champion. Willy wasn't in the Olympics because he ran as a pro but held the marathon WR at one time (first under 2:30). Tatu was also a world-class runner.
Brett Hart & Owen Hart
Dash and Zach Victor
Sean and John Jefferson from IU - both sub 4 inthe same race. May not be the best, but certainly worth mentioning.

Speaking of tennis, how about the Gullickson twins?
One week one of the brothers played Johnny Mac and lost.
The next week the other brother played and he was left
handed. Mac couldn't believe how good this guy was being
able to switch hands.
Do you guys remember the brothers o'bannon
Ed and Charles O'bannon.
Jack and Bobby Charlton

I know I'm a little older, but I think the Reese family produced some pretty good athletes. Sam Reese was my age and I watched him get 11th at NCAA cross as a redshirt freshman. If he wouldn't have been hurt, I think he would have been an all-star. Dan was rated in the top ten of the US Steeple for over ten years and ran 8:25. Tom was a multiple All-American at CU and I think still the mile record holder.
brother combo to watch.
Tariku and Kenenisa Bekele.
I hear at least one of them is pretty good and the other has potential.
Best brother combos? Two is not enough.
