If his ankle was SUCH a concern then why isn't he in Minnesota getting round the clock treatments from team doctors and trainers. He's a sham and a charlatan. Great QB but the media is so suckered into his 'Aw shucks' good old boy act they can't see the fools he's making them out to be.
I don't get your comparisons at all. Nothing Favre has ever done even approaches the crap T.O. has done... calling his QB gay (not that there's anything wrong with that), constantly bad mouthing his next QB, forcing his way out of teams, holding out any year he's remotely unhappy or wants to be traded, doing situps in his driveway.... the guy's been a locker room cancer everywhere he's been. His ex-team mates largely hate him. Favre, on the other hand, has been popular in every locker room he's ever been in. his team mates, with few exceptions, love the guy. I don't even know where the Ochocinco comparison comes from. Ochocinco's antics are loved by pretty much everyone (except the league). He's never been a distraction to his teammates. Of the three guys you mentioned, TO is the only one who's ever been a real problem anywhere.
