Perfectly pointless memorabilia

No wonder Kim Kardashian so quickly called off the
marriage; Kris Humphries signed the sweet spot.

Considering the mishmash of memorabilia that currently makes up the header for this blog, I'm probably not a guy who should jeer at collecting baseball items.

But the news Tuesday that the Twins will auction off (for charity) a baseball signed last summer by the (un)reality TV couple Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian ... I don't know any other way to react than to give it a raspberry.

I certainly understand why the Twins would be eager to rid themselves of willing to part with this particular memory. I would think they'd like to auction off any evidence on hand that 2011 ever occurred.

But really: Who would want this ball badly enough to pay for it? And why?
