Its disgusting and what not, but I dont think a suspension is in order considering he brought it up and came clean. A fine will be all he gets.
TO admitted on the NFL Network post-game show that he "was frustrated" and that he "apologized for his actions".
Romanowski got fined $7,500 for spitting on J.J. Stokes. Look for that much or more...hopefully more.
IMO...he should get suspended and that comes from a 30-year Cowboys fan. No place for that in sports.

You are correct. There will be no suspension....I would like it but yeah, it won't happen. Its just a personal opinion.

Do you know what Hall said? TO was wrong but it's a fine that is all.
I find it exceedingly difficult to feel sorry for DeAngelo Hall.
I know huh?
had you waived him when you should have
you would not have to worry about this nonsence
fines are nothing
making players sit out games is where it is about
...just b/c he apologized, he doesn't get suspended? i think you have lost your mind.
You don't think there's a precedent for fines and no suspensions following spitting incidents? Sean Taylor and Bill Romanowski. Both fined, neither suspended.
is it even on tape?
...doesn't mean they shouldn't have been suspended. to spit on somebody in the arena of compe ion is absolutely ridiculous.
Good question...normally you would want to see that but both parties involved admitted to it...I wouldn't think tape would be neccessary.is it even on tape?
the NFL reviews tape on these kinds of things. if there's no tape of it he definitely won't get suspended.
I believe they said they were not able to find it on tape. Most people are saying that it will just be a fine. They also brought up the point that there is no telling what hall said, espcially giving his history of running his mouth. However they also pointed out that TO has a history of not telling the other side of the story in a lot of situations.For example, he has had a issue with dropping balls lately but never revealed the torn ligaments in his hand etc.... By the way this was adam shine and Jim miller on NFL radio who was speaking of the incident. I personally think that no matter what hall said, or might have said rationalizes TO spitting on him. The funny thing is if TO would have just lied about the incident, or made no comment on the incident it would have been all heresay, but like deon said the guy just can't help but tell the truth.

...to is a piece of crap (just had to get that in again).
Hall was in his face all game whether he was scoring TD's or catching 5 yard slants. Go back and watch the game for those things. I'm not saying spitting in anyone's face is right but provoking someone with severe emotional problems is highly unadvisable. Hall also has a notoriety for trash talking before and during games similar to Plaxico Buress.
I thought Taylor was suspended?
no..he was fined $17K but no suspension.

Trash talk is, sadly, become part of the game. Some people fail to realize that the best comeback is winning. For the most part, TO owned him all game and most importantly, the Cowboys won. All TO should have done was just smile and point to the scoreboard.Hall was in his face all game whether he was scoring TD's or catching 5 yard slants. Go back and watch the game for those things.

yea I agree... He has owned Hall his entire career and he should have just taken satisfaction that he was in his head and walked away.
I was listening to Rome this morning and he said that Hall did not receive an apology from TO. Hall said after the game TO came up to him and asked him if he got beat up at a club. Hall said he does not even go to clubs.
Fixed it for you.
And thanks for posting what many of us were about to.
