Bullshit. Moss and other sources have come out and said that the week before Moss was traded, Red asked what would make Moss happy, and Moss said "Why don't you bring in some free agents you cheap bastard?"
Week later...
That's all it was.
If you recall, the mooning thing actually brought out people on Moss' side. More people thought Buck was being an idiot, than thought he was right. The people who agreed with Buck already hated Moss, and would have found something else (like him saying "we beat they ass" after the game).
I mean come on. Moss and Daunte loved it here.
