ATLANTA - DeAngelo Hall has always considered Terrell Owens to be friend. They would talk on the phone and playfully taunt each other.
Not anymore. Not after Owens spit in Hall's face.
``He had a couple of nice catches,'' said Hall, the Atlanta Falcons' Pro Bowl cornerback. ``You expect that. He's a great player. Right before the first punt, though, we kind of got in each other's face, talking back and forth, and I lost all respect for him when he spit in my face.''
