I agree. I always find it ridiculously stupid when cool places to see are actually within an easy drive from where I live, instead of halfway across the country.

I agree. Move the baseball HOF from Cooperstown. It only has a population of 1800.

Allegheny or Pittsburgh seems to be where it was invented.

The origin of professional football can be traced back to 1892, with William "Pudge" Heffelfinger's $500 contract to play in a game for the Allegheny Athletic Association against the Pittsburgh Athletic Club. In 1920 the American Professional Football Association was formed.

Actually the American Professional Football Association was "founded" in Canton when 5 independent pro teams met at a car dealership in Canton. Two years later - 1923 the first APFA commissioner Joe Carr changed the name to the NFL and Joe ran the league from his insurance offices in...wait for it...Columbus, OHio. So actually Columbus is the birthplace of the real NFL.

Agreed. Columbus is better than Cleveland and Cincy by a lot (it's really not even close). If anything Cincy is overrated because there are people on this board that don't think it's the worst of the 3 big C's in Ohio. It is. Columbus > Cleveland >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Cincy.

What really kills it for Cincy for me is driving over and around a hill to be stuck in a traffic jam. What to do appears to be outside the loop or downtown and nothing in-between.

True. Nothing more boring than people beating the hell out of one another.

I've had a few chances to try Hot Head Burritos and it is a vastly inferior Chipotle knockoff. Just because they have a bunch of sauces doesn't mean their food is great.
Totally disagree. Hot heads is much better than chipolte

Human rights. Why do people assume everyone born should be entitled to certain rights? The only rights you are entitled to are that I won't fucking eat you because I'm hungry. What's all this shit about health care, a roof over your head, a mercedes, pop as many dumbass kids as you want, etc. and I should have to pay for it because human rights? GFY.
