Kind of apples to oranges though. Little should have been suspended, and yes his punishment was weak. But since then a lot has changed and penalties have gotten more severe, and justified IMO.
And no, you cant do any of the things you suggest....
Little should've been banned from the league. He got to make millions, uninterrupted, while a family mourned the loss of their daughter, sister and mother.
Ray Rice was suspended two games for knocking his GF out cold... oh, wait! He filed an appeal and won. His sentence is enforced by teams simply not wanting to sign him.
There's also that Greg Hardy fella. The chick settled out of court, so no harm, no foul in the NFL's eyes.
Players are consistently handed harsher punishments for testing positive for marijuana or PEDs than domestic violence and other serious crimes not related to football. Just Google "NFL player manslaughter", "NFL player domestic violence", etc.
Adrian Peterson got six games for child abuse. Tom Brady got four games for deflating footballs. What?
Hell, Josh Gordon got the same suspension as dog killer Vick for crying out loud.
So when I say it's kind of surprising TJ gets 8 games for his first DUI (I don't even think it was alcohol related), it's the truth, and backed by the leagues record when it comes to handling player suspensions.
And lastly, why the hell can't fruit be compared?
