Spit Happens: TO and DeAngelo Hall Make Nice

With former NFL star and current NFL Channel commentator Deion Sanders acting as a peace broker, Terrell Owens and DeAngelo Hall shared a conference call with Sanders complete with apologies, contrition, and promises of better behavior in the future. With Owens having 35,000 reasons to be contrite, the dollar amount of his fine imposed by the NFL, all is well according to all parties. In case you hadn't heard, Owens was accused by Hall of spitting in his face in a game last week. "He was aggravating me" Owens said in a postgame interview with NFL Network. Now, according to press releases, the air is clear, things are fine between them and all is forgiven. Wipe away your tears, please. These two bring new meaning to the term "swapping spit". Example: in the movie Heartbreak Ridge, starring Clint Eastwood as a Marine Gunnery Sergeant, Eastwood' character repeatedly said to his charges "Don't go swappin' spit in the shower, boys"!
