    That counts

    Amtrak still has done routes

    You can go from Nee York to Portland/Seattle or LA either a north or south route

    Chicago to New Orleans etc

    Somehow Amtrak goes to about 46 of the lower states although it’s not very glamorous anymore

    I’m planning a trip to Glacier NP and will get there by train from Pittsburgh to Chicago to East Glacier this may be next September’s trip

    Ehh, it's close enough to drive. I've driven to China Lake from there before because we needed to rent 4wd vehicles and we couldn't get any leaving from LA. Wasn't a bad drive except they tried to take my apples at the agriculture check point.

    There are some scenic trains still. Amtrak has some routes that take you along the eastern corridor all the way to Florida and they have a few cross country routes. They still have sleeper cars. Problem is they can't be relied on to get you there when they say they will. There will be delays and recently there was a whole train stuck for days because of a derailment. they even have car trains where you can load your car as well.

    There's a Grand Canyon train I want to trip on. During some seasons it's pulled by a steam locomotive.

    The Grand Canyon steam train is on my radar tied to the Utah parks

    Roethlisberger did stink up the joint from January 2018 until he hung up the cleats in 2021. He played a major role in several defeats to lesser teams, especially during the 2018 season. Steelers missed the playoffs that year because they played down to the competition.

    I don't have the time or motivation to research your past posts.

    So you completely misinterpret what I said because you admit you have no idea what I think because of your own ignorance.

    Congrats. Most posters at least try to hide the fact that they are talking out of their a$$es and have no idea what they are talking about. You openly admit it.

    If you are stupid enough to criticize a great former Steelers quarterback while simultaneously insinuating that an unproven second year quarterback, that nearly everyone wants to see become a great player, is somehow better than him...you are exposed as the fraud you are.

    You are so worried about some horrible fans not wanting a young quarterback to succeed so they bash the kid ...and you show them how it's supposed to be done by bashing a former quarterback that has already accomplished what you HOPE the young man can do?

    That isn't the way it is done my man, and you should know better.

    How long did they ignore it with Ben?

    Looked like someone turned on a giant magnet.

    Winner. Others including Myself were complaining about this on the game thread when it happened. It's no doubt the refs made this a more competitive game than it really was towards the end.

    I am fine with what I put in my post. I posted a simple one sentence response in regard to HeinzMustard claiming Kenny Pickett has accomplished more than Big Ben has that triggered an irrational response by HeinzMustard. He claims to know what I think about Kenny Pickett and all he had to do is even read the posts in this thread before he embarrassed himself by accusing me of hoping Kenny Pickett fails. I guess that is just too difficult for some people.

    If you think I am embarrassing myself, that's fine. It says a lot more about you to back someone that is so wrong about something in so many ways.

    Ignorance is something that many here seem to embrace because they are so busy pushing a particular position, they dont even know who agrees with them or not on certain opinions. Then they attack and belittle people, and claim they are taking the high road because they are defending a player from the bad people.

    I like Kenny Pickett. I was happy when they drafted him, and think he can be a very good quarterback. It is lost upon some of you that seem to think you are defending Kenny Pickett by disparaging Ben Roethisberger as a player. It makes zero sense....but that's what many people here have convinced themselves of. If you fall into that category, you better be standing in front of a mirror before you tell me that I am embarrassing myself.

    Awfully smug for someone that doesn't even understand most of the game. You comment on all things football, with almost no knowledge of the sport. I have already explained some things to you and have always treated you well.

    Thanks for revealing your true self.

    He's here to spread his misery to others. Don't fall for it. Make him find someone else to argue with - total waste of time.

    This is true... but it didn't translate into any post season success.

    That drive started with a no call on the throw to Adams. Just went back and watched 11:32 in the fourth 1st and 10 right after commercial break announcers talking about the Home team needing to get going. Massive hold on Highsmith 26 yard completion to Adams. never know how that drive ends if they start with 1st and 20.

    Show an example of me arguing with him. You can't. I can show you countless examples of him trying to start one, though.

    Enjoy the remainder of your life.
