Spitgate 2010: NFL Team Employee Spits on Opposing Team Logo

From ProFootballTalk.com on 1/6/2010:

As the Philadelphia Eagles try to reverse their fortunes against the Dallas Cowboys, the head writer for the team's official web site possibly has added some fuel to the home team's fire.

Per the Philadelphia Inquirer, Dave Spadaro spit on the blue star at the center of the field.

The video had been posted at PhiladelphiaEagles.com, but it later was removed. Cowboys fans posted the segment to YouTube.

Spadaro has since written an "open letter of apology" to the Cowboys.

"As you may have seen, I went too far with my Spudcam video prior to Sunday's game against the Cowboys," Spadaro writes. "Acting alone, and without permission from the Eagles organization, I walked out to the middle of the field at Cowboys Stadium and spit on the Cowboys star, and for that I deeply apologize to the outstanding Cowboys organization and the fine people there, from Jerry Jones to the rest of the team."
