Cowboys respond to Spadaro's spit
Paul Hagen and Les Bowen
So, how do the Cowboys feel about Dave Spadaro spitting on the star at midfield in Cowboys Stadium last Sunday?
None of the Cowboys asked today seemed to care that their logo had been disrespected or inclined to use the incident as motivation, but punt returner Patrick Crayton did not think Spadaro's actions should go unpunished.
“I don’t even know what the repercussions are, what (Eagles management) did to him," he said. "I don’t know if he’s been fired or fined or anything. If there was no action, then that lets you know what the owner of Philly and the people up there think about it as well.”
The Eagles said Spadaro would not be reprimanded and will be with the team Saturday in Dallas. He issued an apology and took the video down off the Web site on Wednesday night.
"The appropriate response has been issued and we will not be commenting further," spokeswoman Pamela Browner White said.
That was fine with Dallas running back Tashard Choice: “What does it mean? Nothing. He don’t play football. I don’t know what you can say. That’s just dumb.”

Move on people. Everybody spits on the star if they have a chance. He just recorded it.
Wow, just when we thought our reputation as ignorant, neanderthal, classless fans couldnt get any worse. This was ridiculous and classless and deserves some sort of action. C'mon man!— Neebo- Spadaro always drools over stars, just ask McNabb, Westbrook, Trotter, etc.— Will T.
- Dave's about as "Philly" as a Poodle.
- Just when we thought the Santa and Snowballs bad rap was fading away... now we have the Spadaro and Spit incident to live with and listen to every time we have a nationally televised game. Thanks Spud, all of Philly thanks you. What an idiot!— ohyoudo?
- That Spuhdaro guy is a joke— beefbr
- i can honestly say that if some toolbag "reporter" for dallas came here and youtubed himself spitting on the eagle at the 50... i'd be like "SO?" this is so stupid its amazing. maybe this was the eagles organization trying to divert your attention away from last weeks performance.— kcullinan
- Who cares? Sad to see this have this much press already— scphillyguy
- dave should have dropped his drawers and relieved himself on that crappy star. I actually like people from TX and think cowboy fans from TX are fine. It's all the local front running Fru-GAY-Zee fans that cheer for dallas. One word: LOSERS!— Tar Heel 1
- Who cares? I only care if we win this weekend. Go Birds!— scphillyguy
- What gets you is, if the Dallas equal, you know, team puppet, did this to the Eagle head at the Linc, Dave would cry about it on his website every day. Saying how terrible it is, how childish it is, how assenine it is. He will be on every radio station that will have him, every tv station that would interview him. He gets away with this, and the Eagles fire a handicapped person from a needed job because it stinks that Brian Dawkins wasnt signed. Guess that is the actions of a tarnish golden standard of a team.— Pat c
