And a Bomber fan spit on Duron Carter from the stands in Regina during the Labour Day classic. What’s with this spitting epidemic? Didn’t any of these people have parents to teach them manners?

I agree with you all — spitting is considered an assault because of the DNA it carries. Washington took at least two other bad penalties earlier in the game. I don’t know how valuable he has been to the team this year, but it should result in a suspension by the team to see if he can get his head back on straight.

I’m sorry but Demond Washington was jacked up way before he spat. When he cranked a crossing route by receiver Roosevelt on the 10 yard line knocking him down. Instead of 3rd down and the Riders would have had to settle for a Field Goal. The Riders were given a 1st down and they ended up scoring a TD on 2 tries. Then the spitting infraction gave the Riders awesome field position and scored another TD the next play. Plus Washington had also picked up a penalty before these 2. Not sure what he ate or drank before the game but what ever it was. It sure put him in a selfish mood. If I was a TiCat player ID be taking a few team members over to talk to him. Totally unacceptable behaviour from a player in a team sport. Very self absorbed individual.

In reply to Ziggie. HIV is not transmitted through saliva. But still a valid comment regarding assault.

Regardless spitting is despicable. Hope he gets a suspension. If Austin tolerates thistype of behavior I’ll be shocked

What Washington did was gross…
As a life long Cat fan…their is no excuse for his conduct.
Not only did he cost a touchdown after his penalty and get ejected.
It was the turning point of the game…in the Cats lo loss.
You will not see him in another game in a Ti Cats uniform.
He will be sent packing before the end of the weekend.
As he should be….bottom line.

I have no idea what Ang would say now but I suspect when playing he would know spitting only occurs after a take down and someone is on top and spits on you. Refs can’t call that
