Rojo, sex discrimination is going on, but its taking place well before nationals even start. Many universities have cut men's track and even xc, denying hundreds of young men the opportunity to experience athletics. Usually this is done for the sake of pumping money into football teams and their hundred man rosters. Lets get real, a lot of those people don't play all 4 years, unlike serious xc runners and most spend most of their time on the bench. 22 people are needed for a football team, throw in a 2nd string, a couple kickers, and a handful of specialists to cover in case both a first and second stringer are injured, we're at around 50, not 99. For 40 some guys to sit on the bench and be practice dummies, xc and track get cut. The problems you list about scheduling are trivial. I agree that the schedule should rotate for ncaa t&f, but that is trivial. Women should be running the 10k at ncaa d1 xc nats too, but you don't feel the need to complain about that and its a much bigger issue than this scheduling.
Look at it this way: the ncaa basketball championship was on a tuesday night, (or was it monday?) That's obviously a terrible day to air a major championship, people have to get up and go to work early the next morning, yet its ratings were fine.
