Stop Broadcasters from playing the Mario Chalmers Shot

The Issue

Today (11/10/2015), Mario Chalmers was traded to the Memphis Grizzlies.

We know. We know. We know. In the 2008 NCAA Championship basketball game Mario Chalmers, a member of the University of Kansas's mens basketball team, hit a late-game 3-pointer against the University of Memphis Tigers. Kansas would win in overtime, and Memphians would have to live this moment down for the rest of our collective lives.

We already have to suffer through the embarrassment that is the Matt Barnes media circus. Please don't make us suffer through constant "Steve, take a look at this (clip from 2008 title game): That's current Memphis Grizzlies back-up PG standing over the entire city of Memphis, dropping his shorts, and pooping on the hopes and dreams of 676,660 people."

Or

"Wow, Clark, I wonder how many Memphis fans remember this...(clip rolls)."

We all remember it, and have been collectively flinching at the mention of the most commonly forgotten state ever since.

While I have you here, it should also be noted that Hall of Fame coach John Calipari DIDN'T FOUL CHALMERS ON THE POSSESSION LEADING TO THE 3. YOU HAD A FOUL TO GIVE, CAL. WTF BUDDY.

Anyway, please sign this petition. We, as a city, and as a fan base, would greatly appreciate it if we didn't have to hear about this.
