When attention whores are begging to be slapped around, it rarely benefits anyone. But now the Kardashians are bucking that trend, at least for one night. Why? Because it’s getting them press, of course.

In what might be the charity auction items of the year, the Kardashians are auctioning off the chance to be their opponents in a charity boxing match.

According to the auction website: “TKO Boxing and PR Entertainment, Inc presents the ‘Kardashian Charity Knock Out’. This is your chance to step into the ring and duke it out with your favorite Keeping up With The Kardashians cast member, Kim for a good cause. Kim, Khloe, Bruce, Rob, and Scott are looking for you to raise money for their favorite charity, The Dream Foundation. Winners will box the Kardashians cast at the Commerce Casino on November 3rd for a televised taping of ‘Keeping Up with The Kardashians.” –In Game Now.

Apparently, there are rules about requiring the winner to be within five pounds of the person he or she is fighting. But really, I’m surprised that Bruce Jenner, with his three facelifts and all, is getting into this thing. That poor nose of his would probably snap off if it was breathed on the wrong way.

"It's your basic Statue of Liberty play with one twist: you throw it to me! Knute Rockne called it the forward pass."

Patriots' fans are agog about this, but even Krusty the Clown and Boise St. could run this play. I'd rather watch the video after the jump . . .

I don't know who this demeans more, referees or cheerleaders. If either group could be demeaned any more, that is. One thing is for sure, I'd rather spend an evening with the Jags' cheerleading squad than with the Statue of Liberty. That French trollop will let any wretched refuse through her skirts. -KD
