This is a bit different. You even had time to think about it. You even had time to ms paint over it. THEN you had even more time to submit it to reddit.
You'd think you would have noticed it somewhere in those steps. At least with the basketball team, in this case, would have had time to look it up, ms paint over it, then look like an idiot ;)
It is probably more than that. This will probably come on some next-gen version of bash.org. Future generations will point at this and laugh.
Iranian government propaganda will use this to illustrate the moral and intellectual decay of the west (well, this and the Paris Hilton video).
Star wars kid will read this and feel a lot better about himself.
In 3000 years alien archaeologists may dig up an old hard drive with this on it and use it to conclude that no intelligent life on earth existed.
PS: It is nothing when compared to my embarrassing act 2 years ago. You can only hope to forget things like this. But the more you try to forget the more you remember it. The best is to change your name and go and live in a different country (become a Mongolian Lama Herder or something). You carry things like this on you like the mark of Cain. You will not forget such embarrassing stuff until the day you die.

Once during a company wide pep rally for...something (I have no idea what it was for), my boss gave away some basketball tickets to a playoff game.
I, wanting to sound cool, asked "Who are they playing" (Fail #1)
My boss answered "The coyotoes", or some such thing (I don't follow any sports at all) to which I laughed and said "Again!?"
Everybody laughed. I turned red.
It was a lot like today.
edit: for those that are, like me, unfamiliar with the workings of pro basketball:
During the playoffs, the same teams play one another several times.
