History
Cincinnati was named after a Roman General, Cincinnatus. The city was incorporated in the early 1800s. It grew quickly after the invention of steamboats that could travel the Ohio River and the Erie Canal. By the end of the 1800s, Cincinnati had established a streetcar system and developed a baseball team called The Cincinnati Red Stockings. Procter and Gamble was one of the area's first factories, producing Ivory Soap. Cincinnati leaders and developers are in the planning stages to restore the streetcar system, to be started in 2010. The cost would be approximately $102 million to build and will include several stops and trolley cars along a four mile stretch during the first phase to establish faster transit within the busy downtown area. -

Notre Dame loses to Navy (again). Cincinnati a top-five team. Boise State a power. Who says there's no parity in college football?
