1. Dow Down: The Dow Jones is poised to take a 700-point drop at the start of trading this morning as fears of the coronavirus and Bernie Sanders yada yada yada take hold. If you didn’t sell last week, you might as well hold. “Fasten your seatbelts, it’s going to be a bumpy night.”

Ironically, on this morning Warren Buffet is appearing though the entire show on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.” Buffet said he would have no problem supporting Mike Bloomberg for president.

1. Feel The Bern: A huge weekend for Russia, as Bernie Sanders wins the Nevada primary and the Miracle On Ice teams shows up at a Trump rally in Las Vegas wearing MAGA hats. By the way, did you hear Bill Walton scold Dave Pasch on Thursday night in Tempe when Pasch referred to Las Vegas as “Vegas?” Walton: “Would you say ‘Rouge?’ ‘Angeles?’ ‘Francisco?’ ‘Alto?’ Pasch, defeatedly: “You made your point.”
2. Gravity Always Wins (Rule No. 1): Self-proclaimed flat-Earther Mad Mike launches himself in a homemade rocket outside of Barstow, Calif., with the hopes of reaching 5,000 feet in altitude. The space test goes awry and Mike dies. Possibly the last thing he realized from the apex of his flight was that his home planet seemed curved at the horizons.

5. Rocked Chalk: The No. 1, 2 and 4 teams in the nation—Baylor, Gonzaga and San Diego State—all lost on Saturday. Entering the day the Bears were 23-1, the Zags 26-1 and the Aztecs 26-0. So the trio combined for more losses in one 12-hour stretch (3) than they had in the entire season previous to that point. I think I saw an item that said that never before had three teams all of which had 19-game win streaks or greater all lost on the same day.

No. 3 Kansas, by the way, won Saturday. The Jayhawks narrowly edged the Bears in Waco. That’s the second time College GameDay has visited Baylor this academic year and both time the Bears lost to the perennial Big 12 leviathan in that sport.

The NCAA tournament is wide open this year. Wiiiiiiide. And whether you think that’s a good or a bad thing is up to you. But it’s wide open. Oh, and Kansas 7’0″ senior Udoka Azubuike looks like a reincarnated Zion Williamson in the paint, just six inches taller. Keep an eye on him.
