The End is Nigh: Karch taking his pink hat and going home

The best volleyball player ever is retiring (And don't give me that nonsense about Jason Stimpfig).

Karch Kiraly, at 46, is finally hanging it up after this beach season. You know what we appreciate about Karch? The way he makes us feel like we're complete and utter slackers compared to what he does on a daily basis (Not all of us, McPeak, Youngs, etc. Not you guys. You're freaks, too).

The man is FORTY-SIX and still competing on the AVP, and still competitive. He won a beach tournament two years ago. That's just sick.

I remember a story from a couple of years ago where some bigshot from BYU had just graduated and tried to do Karch's workout with him. The BYU guy had to quit after like 5 minutes. That's not unbeatable service, is it?

Karch is like that old Army commercial; he gets more done before 8 a.m. than most of us accomplish, well, probably all week.
