Did the Giants Cheat in 2000? Tiki Sets the Record Straight

Description: A listener drops an all time Minnesota classic: Vikings fans swear the Giants “cheated” in the 2000 NFC Championship by tapping into on field communications and knowing every play. The guys react in real time, pull up the old accusation, and then immediately do the obvious thing that ruins the conspiracy. They replay how that 41-0 game actually unfolded, how fast it became a bloodbath, and why “they stole our signals” sounds a lot like what people say when they cannot accept a historic beatdown. Tiki, who was on the team, shuts it down flat and explains why something like that would not stay secret in an NFL locker room. From there, the show pivots right back into New York pain with Jets calls. A fan admits it is getting harder and harder to defend the current direction, but also makes the point that firing coaches nonstop does not magically make the job more appealing. The guys break down the ugly truth: for the Jets, trust is only earned one way, winning, and everything else is just noise.
