Everyone makes mistakes but to lie about it is childish and reveals a lack of character. He put Williams in bad position.
FYI, TMC posted that clip to the first post of this thread.

I agree 100% - I really thought the refs did a good job in that game. I would have liked to see an offsetting penalty on Pittman, but I can understand Carey's decision.

Okay, I didn't see the program...could you see Taylor spit from their camera angles or was it the same angle just with Carey being miked?

I don't know, I'm just asking.

Re: Sean Taylor Spitting Video

Its NFL Films so it's a different view than ESPN. I didn't see any spit per se but Carey definitely saw something. It may be that the video that shows the spit was doctored to frame a guilty man. Someone with better computers than me should compare. I use dial up so I don't even like to download video. It takes too long. However, I suspect that if the NFL films angle was definitive it would be played ad nauseum in order to put Williams on the spot.

Re: Sean Taylor Spitting Video

I think Pittman spit on Taylor and it's just running off Taylor's facemask! That sandbaggin' son-of-a-bitch!

Re: Sean Taylor Spitting Video

I gotta' say, doctored or not, I REALLY feel like we would have seen THAT much spit on the original replay.

That's pretty much the way I feel too. Not that Taylor didn't do it, but, WOW, it's very visual, clear, and evident that Taylor spat. On all the other cameras, you don't see anything.....at all.

Re: Sean Taylor Spitting Video

The other thing, if you look at it a couple times again and again, you see that the spit falls from Taylor's face mask and as it goes to the ground, you can see it getting closer to Taylor.

The only way you can spit and then have the spit appear to come towards your body is if:
A) You are walking towards the spit and you catch up to it a bit.
B) You can spit boomerang style, projecting it out and then have it change direction in mid-air.

I'm not even kidding, this is a magic-loogie case! But seriously, the more I look at it, the more obvious it is that it's doctored. We all saw the replays on TV, and we know Taylor was not moving towards Pittman. He was standing still the whole time, and yet the spit fell towards Taylor's body.

Re: Sean Taylor Spitting Video

Also, I have a hard time believing that if Taylor really wanted to spit in Pittman's face, he wouldn't have been capable of spraying him right in the grill. If you're trying to spit on someone, that loogie comes flying out with force. You don't miss from 2 feet away. It doesn't make sense why a loog would dribble out of his mouth like the video shows.

You know you're right. Look at the arc of the spit when it comes out. Taylor doesn't move but the spit looks like a basketball shot.

It looks like it hits the bottom bar of his face mask. It may have got stuck on the bar and swung back towards him.

Interesting theory, but I think we'd see some spit strings if that were the case (Jenna Jameson anyone? LOL). It appears to make it all the way to the edge of Pittman's facemask and then start backtracking towards Taylor.

Wow. I can't believe you pulled that one out! LOL

And what's even sadder is that at least 99% of us know what you're talking about.

Re: Sean Taylor Spitting Video

The camera is panning right to left which makes it look like the spit is falling towards ST.

Let's say for a second the video is a fake, then how do the conspiracy theorists explain the audio from the clip? Pittman immediately starts yelling that Taylor spit at him.

I think I'd fall for the we didn't land on the moon conspiracy over this one.
