There's disrespect and then there's intent to cause bodily harm.
Nobody's defending the act of spitting though.

Well, to be fair, I'm saying I don't care whether he spat or not because he helped us win the game.
I'm tired of all the high and mighty, "football is a gentleman's game", "that's disrespectful" hogwash.
Taylor is a maniac on the field, and that's why we love him. It turns out he may have problems turning that part of his brain off between downs and/or games, and now everybody wants to disown him.
I think that's far lamer than the issue of whether he spit on a wifebeater.
