09:50 AM ET 10.03 | One of the more bizarre developments of Saturday came when ESPN's Kirk Herbstreit lamented on the air the performance of the Bengals offense, despite the presence of Terrell Owens and Chad Ochocinco. The decision of Herbstreit, a long-suffering Bengals fans, was a little unusual since his beat is college ball. The reaction from T.O. pushed the scenario into the world of Looney Tunes. Owens took to Twitter, and he engaged in extended bashing of Herbstreit. T.O. also responded to tweets he received from several followers, claiming that the thin-skinned wideout isn't insecure and admitting once again that he indeed loves him some him.

Who would have thought that TO might react defensively to criticism? That's so unlike him.

Hmmm....

Headline => "T.O. takes aim at Herbstreit"
Text in article => "Owens took to Twitter, and he engaged in extended bashing of Herbstreit"
