North Carolina athletic director Bubba Cunningham obviously is a stand-up guy.
Because ever since Tar Heels football coach Larry Fedora's moronic ACC media day motor mouth last Wednesday was like an old episode "Seinfeld" in which at three plot lines tied together at the end of each show, Cunningham has been apologizing for Fedora's lack of communication skills.
Fedora somehow turned his answer about the NCAA's new kickoff rule that will allow fair catching kickoffs inside the 25-yard line for touchbacks into a rambling dissertation.
The short version: Fedora is convinced all present and future safety rules will soften a sport he believes provides life lessons which strengthen the fiber of America.
