How much money do you think changes hands on the NCAA Tourney?

Here's a question that is on my mind this morning.

Just how much money do you think changes hands on the NCAA men's hoops tournament. That's right, they call it March Madness for a reason. Actually, maybe they should call it March Madne$$.

Staff writer Tim Logue took up the challenge of why the bracket pool has become one of the signatures of March.

At the same time, Kathleen Carey talked with some experts about just how much productivity in the office and workplace is lost as people obsess over the tournament and their brackets - and why that is not necessarily a bad thing.

Those are just two of the stories you will find today in our special 32-page March Madness NCAA tournament preview tab.

You'll also find out 68 things you need to know about the Field of 68, courtesy of columnist Jack McCaffery, who also runs down the 10 greatest NCAA Tournament games involving Big 5 teams.

We'll also have a couple of special keepsake items honoring the 30th anniversary of Villanova's 1985 championship team, including a poster page.

This is one any hoops fan will want to get their hands on. Make sure you pick up a copy of the print edition of today's Daily Times.
