Well let's see... Not being allowed to gamble on baseball games in which you are taking part is arguably baseball's #1 rule. The rule states "Any player, umpire, or club or league official or employee, who shall bet any sum whatsoever upon any baseball game in connection with which the bettor has a duty to perform shall be declared permanently ineligible." MLB mandates that this rule be posted in each and every single clubhouse in the majors. Sounds to me like this is a rule they take pretty seriously.
The NFL guidelines recommend a fine of $25,000 for inflating/deflating balls beyond the permitted range.
But yeah, besides that they're practically the same.
