Default Drinking too much water worse than swinging a helmet?!

I don't know the whole story, but Von Miller had no positive drug test, yet the league apparently wanted an even longer suspension anyway...even tho the normal 1st one is 4 games. Apparently his first urine sample he (accidentally?) spilled and the 2nd they claimed was diluted.

He got 6 games.

Meanwhile, Antonio Smith rips Incognito's helmet off then swings it at his head......and gets 1 game....

So....what am I missing?
I'm not suggesting there isn't more to both stories, but with what's out there, ain't it a bit of a head scratcher?

Miller did have a positive drug test (his second) and by attempting to tamper the testing procedure by drinking excessive water when he knew he was going to be tested, he was facing an even longer possible suspension than 6. imo, he was lucky to get just the 6 games, under the NFL testing policies, by trying to "rig" the test that should have been counted as two infractions...but he successfully arbitrated it down to the minimum under his circumstances, to six games. One more positive test or other NFL rule infraction and he will be out an entire season. It has been Miller claiming he did not test positive for anything, but all reports contradict his claims.

I don't think it has been reported what substance he did test positive for this time, but his first infraction was for amphetamines and marijuana...there have been unconfirmed reports that it was amphetamines again, but nothing that has been reported by a "reputable" source.
