Yes, it is comparing apples to oranges. Honestly honey, I don't think you understand what that phrase means.

If that crime does not require getting kicked out then fighting dogs should not either.
I never said he should get kicked out. Read the posts. I said the Eagles are idiots for hiring him because they're going to be dealing with a nightmarish PR situation. The Falcons were smart and the Eagles are stupid. Period. Steelers got rid of Plaxico Burress for part of the same reasons - he was a pain in the ass and a PR nightmare. Putting the moral outrage aside, it is just an incredibly dumb business decision.
