This is something I've wondered about for a while. Cincinnati hasn't annexed any new land since the 1920s, but unlike Cleveland, it is not like the city is landlocked by incorporated suburbs, most of the Cincinnati suburbs (other than to the east side) are unincorporated land. What is stopping Cincinnati from annexing Delhi, Anderson or finneytown, or if that would be too much for a problem, why not just annex the tiny scraps of Columbia township that still exist?

Columbus keeps expanding pretty much constantly through land annexation and Cincinnati just sits stagnant. Would it be possible to use the waterworks to force land annexation in the same way Columbus does? I get that some areas probably aren't worth annexing but surely some of them would help expand the city's population and tax base?

Also tangentially related, I understand that Norwood is large and has enough population and tax base to support itself, but how on earth to st bernard and elmwood place stay afloat, when they are so tiny?

Can’t even properly perform against a G6 team. Disappointing. Here’s to hoping they have another losing season and don’t upset any favored Big 12 teams which will just bring the whole conference down.

This team looks about the same as they have under most of McGuire's tenure, unable to perform to the level of their resources. The peak with Head Coach Joey Mcguire has passed and he’s probably just a season or two behind Dave Aranda’s fate.

Turnovers, Poor O-Line play, and Penalties cost them this game. It looked like a team that deserved to win before halftime.

​

Alot of cities have a song that is very iconic or associated with that city specifically, NYC has Empire state of mind, Pittsburgh has Black and Yellow, Columbus has a OSU chant or something, Cleveland has At least we're not Detroit etc

Is there a song that is associated like that for Cincinnati? Maybe by a local band or singer. What song is representative of our city?

A couple of days ago I posted this map by Matt Forest. It is a project to map by survey, college football fandom across the country. You guys responded really well and he has since updated the map and there looks like there's a lot more areas filled in and less random counties due to single responses. It's a great project and my only real critique is that some teams' colors are too close to each other.

Here's some fun areas I noticed, there's a pocket of Michigan fans just south of Nashville, a pocket of Tulane fans in San Jose for some reason, Penn State controls Boston proper for some reason, and the entire NYC area is a free for all.

Additionally here are the top 5 teams by responses, which at this time all happen to be in the B10 or ND:

-Ohio State:791

-Michigan:695

-Notre Dame:609

-Penn State:510

-Wisconsin:363

It also has options to select the FBS map or face 2 teams off against each other, which can be interesting for things like osu-Michigan. You can also see the percentage a particular response takes up in a county which cns be useful for big cities. For instance just 21% of fans IN Houston are actually fans OF Houston.

How does this map match your personal experience on the ground as well?

The other 3 p4 conferences all have a dedicated cable network but not the B12, is it because of the whole longhorn network saga? I've heard of it but was a child at the time so am not super familiar. If so why is it still being held back if Texas is gone now?

Hey guys, while we wait for kickoff today, I found this project by this guy named [Matt Forest](https://www.instagram.com/matt\\\_forrest). It is a project to map by survey, college football fandom across the country. zits a little sparse now but still pretty interesting to look at. I thought it would be cool to show this subreddit and hopefully fill out the map a bit more, so give it a look. You can also click the counties to see the breakdown and there's also a fcs version of the map in the settings up top.

It shows the bearcat fandom in Hamilton county but could definitely use some more info in the counties surrounding, so check it out.

I'm wondering what y'all think of this. Obviously I see the value in refusing to lend legitimacy to a guy as slimy as Vivek but on the other hand I don't want it to be a time where he can talk and platform without confrontation.

This is a winnable race and I don't want this decision to affect it negatively. On the other hand does anybody really watch gubernatorial debates?

Being a UC fan, most of our rivals are the other river city schools, Pittsburgh, Louisville Memphis, etc. you can even throw Tulane and WVU in there. These schools and cities are very closely tied together historically and culturally, and pretty much every major city on the Ohio or Mississippi rivers (and even some smaller cities like Huntington) has a Major University, either a old city based University like Cincy, Louisville Pitt and Memphis, or a Large state University like Minnesota or LSU.

Except for one major city that has neither, Saint Louis. Saint Louis has a larger metro population than any of those cities except Minneapolis. Despite this, it is does not have a single University with over 20k students. The two universities in the area that could feasibly support a FBS team are Washington University, which only has d3 sports, and Saint Louis University, which does have d1 sports but abolished it's football team in the 40s.

Why isnt Saint Louis home to a major public university like the other river cities (I know Tulane is private but it used to be the public University of Louisiana so I'm counting it), why did SLU abolish it's football team and is there any hope of it coming back like how Xavier plans to restore their football team in the coming years?

I know technically there's already been 1 game but this is really an off-season post that I just randomly was wondering about.

Crazy upset that I did not see coming in the slightest. With how far right Florida has shifted I did not expect a progressive to win the primary at all. Obviously another good sign for the progressive faction of the party.

I haven't seen much polling of this race, and had honestly written it off in my head as a loss, but the one poll I could find that polled both showed Nixon OVERPERFORMING Vindman in the general by 2 points, although still behind by 8. I don't think this race is really a likely flip in the slightest but maybe a little bit more than I had expected.

Still likely a Moody win but yet another sign establishment Dems not being able to win primaries in swing and right-leaning states they should theoretically do the best in.
