I don't think it's apples and oranges at all. I think it is symptomatic of the attitude professional athletes have. They are incapable of controlling themselves and it is because there are no real consequences. And remember how it all started. Artest laid a cheap-shot on Wallace in a way that could have ended his season or his career. Not dissimilar to the Bertuzzi incident. And the attitude, that something like that is okay to do to an opposing player, carried over to fans when Artest was doused with soda or beer or whatever.
