The Spitting Ejection

I dispute the ejection for spitting with all my heart. There is a tacit exchange of blood, sweat, and tears the entire game between these guys. Is saliva all of the sudden out of bounds?

I couldn't tell when Taylor spit on Pittman, but I can tell you when Pittman clearly hit Taylor in the face. The fact that Pittman continued unpunished after clocking a player is stunning.

Well, they always get the guy who hits first or in this case, spits first.

No excuses for ST, spitting in guy's face is dispicable.

But is it a rule?

like i said in the other thread
----
i honestly didn't see anything. I do however think it is was possible that while yelling a little bit of spit flew out his mouth. I just didin't see anything. You got to be a stone cold mother ****er to spit on someone and not even move. His head didn't jerk forward. Spit on something go ahead in anger. your head has to move. it has to. But Sean is one stonned cold mother ****er

It is an automatic ejection, but from all replays, it appears only the ref, Taylor or Pittman truly know what happened.

the ref was rigth there ...in a big game he does something so stupid it was putrid kick a man in the balls .....but dont spit in his face... he acted like a punk

Well if no replay clearly shows it, I doubt the league will suspend him as it will be word against word against ref's word.

He was stupid to be in Pittmans face like that anyway, so I have little sympathy for the penalty etc. today. But a suspension would be OTT. And I entirely agree Pittman shuld have been penalised for retaliation.

I think Gibbs will suspend him if the allegations are true.

As you guys have stated i didnt see any spit come out of his mouth unless it came from doing all that shit talking back and forth like you guys said. And if someone spits in someone elses face you will normally flitch close your eyes or some kind of reaction first before you swing. i dont think he spit and im sticking to that.

If ST is out next week, I think we lose the game. Taylor helps out so much in this style of "D" and we can't have him watching from the sidelines. I hope to God we have the whole "D" on the field (minus Wynn of course). Go Skins!
