Toucher & Rich Introduce 'March Badness' -- The Worst Boston Sports Has To Offer

BOSTON (CBS) -- It's March, which means a few things:

  • Football has been over for a couple of months and won't return for several more.
  • The NBA and NHL seasons are playing out the string, and everyone's waiting for the playoffs to begin.
  • Spring training, the longest and most excruciating preseason, is rolling along.
  • The country is gripped by the excitement of March Madness.

So it is with all four items in mind that Toucher & Rich are rolling out "March Badness," a celebration of sorts of all the worst parts about Boston sports.

Fred, Rich and Wallach have spent several painstaking hours crafting the list of participants, and now it's time for you to vote. The contenders are divided into four different regions, and it's up to you to determine which ones will advance to the next round.
