Texans/Jaguars Game Forcing 'Scandal' Fans in Houston to Stay Up Crazy Late For Mid-Season Finale

The season that the Houston Texans have been having so far is--well, nothing short of scandalous it is so bad. The Jacksonville Jaguars? That organization is so bad it's scandalous--and it beat the Texans (which is truly scandalous).

But do you want to hear about something really scandalous?

One of the worst games of the NFL season (yes, the Texans/Jaguars Thursday night game is going to be that bad) is forcing fans of the popular show 'Scandal' to wait till well after midnight to see the mid-season finale of their favorite show.

While the rest of the country will watch the game on the NFL Network since the Texans are playing its being broadcast locally in Houston.

That pretty much means either they are exhausted at work the next day because they stayed up till 2 AM watching a television show (don't know too many bosses that will be okay with that) or they risk finding out from friends, the internet, media, etc what happened.

As you could imagine this made Houston based fans of the show angry. What do people do whenever they are angry about something? Yep--they took to Twitter to vent their frustration:

Oh on #Scandal night, Houston people are going to be pissed

I can't help, but wonder if they'd be complaining so much if the Texans were doing well this season.
