I'm surprised Hall had respect for him before this incident.

Who spits in someone's face? I know if someone was getting all up in my grill if I did anything I'd pop him, not spit in his face. Just another reason for me to hate T.O.

I think it would be an excellent message to send by suspending him a game or even two. There's precedent in other sports i.e. Roberto Alomar.
Now, do I think it'll happen? No. $15,000 fine.

Players spit in players faces all the time in football and never get suspended. Ejected when a ref catches you in the act and fined just about everytime it's brought to someone's attention. But T.O. won't be suspended.

But T.O. won't be suspended. ...so OBVIOUSLY that means it's ok. I can go giving curbies then, but if I don't get caught, then there is obviously no harm in it? |

If you spit in my face I'd kick your ass. I'm just laying down the facts. |

TO fined 35 grand... I'm fine with this...
What pisses me off is some of these no-name guys on the NFL Network that defend TO saying he gets called out whenever he does something, and that the media "picks on him"... because he definitely doesn't warrant any of this or anything...

I feel a players past actions should play a part in decesions like this. If Peyton Manning spits in an oppenent's face, fine. If someone who is in constant trouble, like a Bengal, suspend him.

Speaking of which, odds on the Bengals arrest list reaching an even dozen before the end of the year?

I don't like the double standard here. Last year, Sean Taylor got fined half as much for doing the same thing, and he's gotten in all sorts of trouble.
NFL needs a set fine/suspension/disciplinary action for something like this.
