It was absolutely no fun watching J.J. Watt celebrate his tackle for a loss and then again for his hit on Texans quarterback Davis Mills.

It stung just as bad to see DeAndre Hopkins catch a touchdown pass against his former team.

It was that kind of day for the Texans, who lost to the Cardinals 31-5 Sunday.
chron.com/sports/texans/…
Watching Watt and Hopkins walk off the field side-by-side, all smiles didn't help either.

But memes help.
But, the Texans need a lot more than just Watt and Hopkins. Not only have they lost six straight games, but they've been outscored 102-8 in their past three road contests.

These Texans games are getting worse and worse every week.

Memes are all we've got.
On the second day of training camp, new Texans running back Phillip Lindsay talked about how he and so many teammates were entering the season with a chip on their should and something to prove.

"You've got a bunch of us, think about it, everybody comes in here and for some reason, they think we're the scum bucket."
chron.com/sports/texans/…
Well, this season is looking a little scummy for the Texans.

We've got more memes for you to laugh and relieve the pain (or revel in the joy of the Texans being the scum bucket of the NFL).

It was inevitable that once @elonmusk moved to Austin he had to take up microbrewing.

While celebrating a new Gigfacility in Grünheide, Germany at the Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg County Fair, the Tesla founder announced a new venture outside of his fascinations with cars, space, meme cryptocurrency and moving to Texas: Giga Bier.
chron.com/food/article/e…
The upcoming brew was blurted out as an afterthought to everything else Tesla is up to these days, but Musk did offer a preview of the beer, clad in a futuristic bottle that no koozie will ever be able to hold.

chron.com/news/houston-t…
The sign was quickly replaced with a message cheering on the Astros in their World Series run, but not before advocates were able to grab a screenshot of a Facebook post from the bar showing off the doomed marquee.
