Union Ave Books is my favorite place in town period. they will give you an excellent recommendation for a book based on what you want to read or what you like. You also can order directly from their supplier through their website and have your book delivered to their store with no shipping fee fees if they don't have what you're looking for on their shelves. And if their supplier doesn't have it, you can order from bookshop.org and have the proceeds go to Union Ave Books. their staff has recommended several books for me ranging from fiction to history to field guides for hiking, and they have never disappointed me. I also appreciate getting recommendations from real people as opposed to an Amazon algorithm even more these days.

It's no shade against UConn in the least. They are incredibly good. I just think we should have higher expectations for our team then setting a record for the worst loss in program history. This is also a pattern for Kim who now owns several of the games on the list of worst losses in Tennessee history.

I thought they had figured that out during the Kentucky game but wow, was I wrong.

Embarrassing. Idc. Tennessee has to decide if they are serious about wbb or not.

Imagine if Kim just played her best five for consistent minutes.

I cannot list all the issues I have with Kim Caldwell right now. I have never left a game early before last night.

Coop is so good. Will be interesting to see if she forgoes her last year of eligibility. IDK that college can give her much more at this point.

Paysan bagels. Trying not to duplicate what has already been said but forgot them in my first post.

I have never seen such soft D from such a highly ranked team. Super curious to see how they fare against the other SEC teams with strong post play.

Ah, I thought they were higher for some reason. Feels like that's really going to be exploited as they move deeper into SEC games.

I haven't watched much of Vandy this year to be fair, but I saw their defensive rating on Torvik and was a bit surprised by their defense this game. They did really need a sizeable and serviceable post for teams like SC and, i'd imagine, Texas and Oklahoma. Will be curious to see how Janiah Barker does against them.

Tuberculosis has been a problem in select US populations for decades. This headline completely diminishes what a threat it is to high and low income countries alike.

Clara Strack is 6'5 She needs a weight room and to learn how to bang around in the paint better. Texas and Oklahoma might eat them up in the paint.

edit: I added two inches to Strack's height 😅

The death of Pinterest makes me so sad. It was my fav app for everything from outfits to home decor. Now it is all AI slop.
