On deck: the week ahead in sports.(KNOW IT ALL)(Calendar)
THIS I GOOTA SEE
ALL TIMES EASTERN
SAT 18
Second-round coverage of the NCAA Tournament begins at 1 p.m. on CBS, but start your hoops day at noon with the hourlong HBO documentary :03 from Cold, a moving examination of the U.S. Olympians' controversial 1972 loss to the Soviets in Munich. The best part: By comparison, getting screwed on your brackets really won't seem so bad.
SUN 19
Bob Knight won't be anywhere near the Big Dance (noon, CBS), but find your way to him on the dial if you can--in a reputation-making 1980 interview with Dan Rather (60 Minutes on Classic, 2:30 p.m, ESPN Classic) and on Knight School (10 p.m., ESPN). Two of the final four Texas Tech walk-on hopefuls will get the boot.
* Also from ESPN Classic, at 10:30 p.m.: Muhammad Ali vs. Chuck Wepner in 1975--a 15-round blood bath that was the inspiration for Rocky.
