The verb "spoil" should be conjugated according to its tense.
The phrase originated from the older sense of the word spoil in English, meaning to strip the armor and weapons from a slain enemy. From here, the word came to mean the items that were removed, booty or plunder, hence our word spoils, as in phrases such as “the spoils of war”. It then took on a literal meaning of depriving someone's quality or distinction, and later still to impair or damage something to the extent that it became useless. By the end of the 17th century, the word spoil meant to overindulge, hence we have the phrase as we know it nowadays.
