Currently in MLB, there are the Upton brothers (BJ & Justin), Drew brothers (JD & Stephen), Young brothers (Dimitri & Delmon), Weaver brothers (Jeff & Jered), the Izturis brothers (Cesar & Maicer), and the Laroche brothers (Adam & Andy). There are also many great former players who had brothers as well. The Ripken brothers, the DiMaggio brothers, the Alomar brothers, the Neikro brothers, the Aaron brothers, and there were probably many others. One important brother combo would have to be Paul and Lloyd Waner, the only brother combo in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
In the NFL, some notable brothers besides the Manning and Barber brothers would be Champ and Boss Bailey, Koy and Ty Detmer, Matt and Tim Hasselback, Terrence and Tory Holt, Brock and Damon Huard, Julius and Thomas Jones, Josh and Luke McKown, Santana and Sinorice Moss, and Jordan and Carson Palmer. But there are a lot more that I didn't mention. As of April 2007, there are 313 documented sets of brothers who have played pro football.
For the NBA, there aren't very many brothers I could find except the Collins brothers (Jared and Jerren), and soon the Lopez brothers (Robin and Brook).
Sorry I didn't feel like looking up brothers in other sports.
