Show me the $$$-March Madness
Here is what the NCAA makes off March Madness:
2005: $420 million 2006: $453 million 2007: $490 million 2008: $529 million 2009: $571 million 2010: $617 million 2011: $657 million 2012: $710 million 2013: $764 million Here is what the NCAA makes off the women's tournament: 2005: $12 million 2006: $13 million 2007: $13.8 million 2008: $14.8 million 2009: $15.8 million 2010: $16.8 million 2011: $17.9 million 2012: $18.8 million 2013: $19.1 million So essentially, the NCAA makes more money in 1 1/2 men's games than they make for the entire women's tournament each year |

What's your point?

OK, the Men's Tournament makes more than the Women's Tournament. This is not a new observation.

Not sure where you got your numbers for the men's tournament, but they are low. In 2011 it was $771M in television rights alone ... and it generates more than 90% of the NCAA's annual budget.
