thedailycaller--2020-12-15--Durham, North Carolina Named The Best City In America For Christmas

Durham , North Carolina is apparently the best city in America when it comes to celebrating Christmas .
WalletHub released its rankings for the best cities for Christmas , and Durham came in at number one .
San Jose , Honolulu , Oakland and Raleigh rounded out the top five .
That means North Carolina accounted for 40 % of the top five .

I find that incredibly difficult to believe .
Christmas is best celebrated in areas where it ’ s so cold that going outside might kill you .
Simply opening your front door is a threat to your life .
That ’ s when we ’ re at our best when it comes to dominating Christmas .
While I know people from North Carolina , and they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ m not buying these rankings at all .
I ’ m just not .
Christmas in Wisconsin is lightyears better than Christmas in any state with warm weather for most of the year .
You wake up , there ’ s a few feet of snow on the ground , it ’ s cold as all hell , you get a cup of hot apple cider and start opening gifts .
Am I just overreacting here ?

Duke quarterback Chase Brice is looking for another change of scenery.
According to Max Olson, Brice has entered the transfer portal after a single season with the Blue Devils. He threw for 10 touchdowns and 15 interceptions this past season. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
Duke starting QB Chase Brice has entered the NCAA transfer portal. The former Clemson QB is on the move again. — Max Olson (@max_olson) December 14, 2020
I honestly thought that Brice was going to play very well at Duke. I thought he would be a very solid option for the Blue Devils.
Clearly, I was wrong because he didn’t have a good year at all, and the Blue Devils are currently 2-9. To say it’s been a disappointing campaign would be a major understatement.

Brice originally played at Clemson, but had to leave because there was no shot that he was ever going to play over Trevor Lawrence.
He headed to Duke and won the starting job, but had a terrible year. Now, he’s looking for a new place to play.

He has a ton of talent, but he just needs to figure out a way to put it all together. We’ll see where he lands, but it might be time for him to head to a G5 team.

Well, it sounds like he wants to stick around in Ann Arbor. According to Tom VanHaaren, Harbaugh told the media talks about his contract have come up with recruits and the Michigan coach said, “My plan is (I’m) committed to Michigan.”
Harbaugh said conversations with recruits have come up about his contract. Harbaugh said, “My plan is (I’m) committed to Michigan. Have been and will remain.

According to John Bacon, contract negotiations have already started on an extension.

UM AD Warde Manuel has discussed with Jim Harbaugh a new contract with lower base salary and buyout, though with good provisions to hire top assistants and large incentives for performance. (1/2) — John U. Bacon (@Johnubacon) December 8, 2020
Harbaugh can now accept, negotiate, or decline. At least five NFL teams have expressed an interest in hiring him – per usual – though not clear if any have made firm offers yet. (2/2) — John U. Bacon (@Johnubacon) December 8, 2020
