As the US prepares to meet Lithuania in the quarterfinals tonight, Sheryl Swoopes confirms this will be her last World Championships.

Candace Parker's impressive play continues to be a big story. She's the focus of an article on the Fiba site, while Oscar Dixon over at USAToday checks in on Parker's growth.

The Lynx site does a Q&A with rookie Seimone Augustus, and the veteran Tina Thompson gets some well-deserved attention from Mechelle Voepel.

A side note from the "If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem" camp. If you're watching tonight's World Championship on NBAtv (6.45est) or the replay on your local FSN station, you might consider sending each organization an email of support.

For all we rage against the lack of coverage of the women's game (yes, I'm still counting: the women's victory over the Czechs earned'em a whoppin' 47 AP-words in the NYTimes), it's important to acknowledge those that DO make the effort to cover the game.

NBAtv can be reached through the WNBA. You can contact FSN here.
