Why is football being referenced with the likes of baseball and basketball concerning corruption?

Football
J_ke asked:


In sporting news across the last couple days, a lot of sports writers refer to professional sports as being corrupted. The long time steroid issue in baseball, Spygate in football and now the officiating scandals in basketball.

Why should football be even in the same category when it was one incident concerning one organization that made the wrong decision. The other two are substantially more significant because they pertain to multiple incidents among various players and officials in multitude of games. The fact is the Patriots have been punished and the incident is over. Whereas in baseball and basketball these incidents their incidents are far conclusion. That and the NFL’s been one of the strictest disciplinary leagues and has one of toughest drug testing policies. So why should football get all the negative publicity deserved with the rest of the professional sports?
