Tiki Barber isn't here for the internet memes.

We got him at the 17th Annual Amazon Kids Back-to-School Fashion Show, presented by Rookie Kids, and the Giants legend turned NYC sports radio host told TMZ Sports he fully backs John Harbaugh’s now-viral team speech -- the one that had half the internet cringing and comparing the new coach to a motivational speaker.
