Well, if you would just stop for moment, remain calm, and think logically - instead of emoting like a hormonal, adolescent girl - you would understand why this is so. Yes, there definitely is a place for women's sports - women's sporting events are eminently worthwhile and can be very entertaining to watch - BUT, women's sports do NOT ... not even remotely close ... garner the audience (the "audience" - you know, that thing that pays the bills?) that men's sports do. So, untwist your soiled panties, Mr. Cork Gaines, and acknowledge the reality that the women's Final Four basketball teams earn about 27% of what the men's Final Four basketball teams earn because the audience for the women's games are probably about 27% of that of the men's games.

Now ... there, there ... have a good cry and get it all out of your system, lil' guy.
