Yep, and I highly doubt they're making $771 million on TV contracts for the women's tournament.

There are lines for the Women's games in the Final Four this season.

Stanford is favored by 5 and UConn is favored by 7.5

To me, this would be like betting on the Pro Bowl.

I don't even understand that comment, but it's still funny.

I was sitting in the Madison airport a few years ago awaiting a flight, drinking a beer at the Great Dane brewery. Day of the Pro Bowl. Guy comes in, clearly agitated. He asks me what the score of the Pro Bowl is. My response, "Who cares?" The bar doesn't even have the game on TV.

He then tells me he has a series of bets on them, so he cares. I laugh out loud at him.

A series of bets on the Pro Bowl. The word addiction comes to mind.

I was sitting in the Las Vegas airport a few years ago. Day of the Pro Bowl. 500 guys come in, clearly agitated. They all ask me what the score of the Pro Bowl is.
