Greeting sportsfans, I’m Brent Toast of ESPN, along with former Heisman winner Johnny Twitt. Welcome to the most important event of 2016, the college football national championship! Who will prevail?

But first, let’s look at the second-most important event of 2016, the race for the White House. Who’s playing with his hand…

Dolphins were looking ahead before Sunday’s win over Patriots

in Sports/Top Headlines by

Even before the Miami Dolphins took the field on Sunday against the New England Patriots, they were already thinking about next year. With the Patriots’ listless performance against Miami on Sunday, they might be accused of thinking about the next two weeks. But that was not the case. New England’s uninspired play, coupled with a strange game plan, led to a 20-10 loss to the Miami Dolphins at Sun Life Stadium. Like often throughout their run of greatness, the Patriots…

Chuck Pagano’s fake punt vs. Patriots heads list of worst calls

in Sports/Top Headlines by

With Andrew Luck watching from the sideline, special-teams ace Colt Anderson lined up under center and took the snap at a critical point during the much-anticipated rematch between the Colts and Patriots. It was easily the worst play of the 2015 season. Indianapolis trailed New England 27-21 late in the third quarter and faced a fourth-and-3 at its own 37. Obviously, it was a punting situation. But Colts coach Chuck Pagano had other ideas. Wide receiver Griff Whalen played center.…

in The Bay and the 'Burg/Top Headlines by

Welcome back to the working world, folks. I hope you all had a glorious Thanksgiving weekend holiday. I enjoyed the time off by seeing some really good films (“Brooklyn” and a very surprisingly good “Creed“), some good football (highlighted by Stanford’s last second victory over Notre Dame, although it’s always nice to see Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers teams go down), and a little politics thrown in there as well, in Sarasota. Now let’s talk about the truth, and whether…

Have arm, will travel: Life of NFL journeyman quarterbacks

in Sports/Top Headlines by

Josh Johnson thumbs through the array of Buffalo Bills-themed T-shirts, pullovers and sweatpants that hang at his locker. Almost everything he wears is provided by the team – his fourth since April. “Look at all this stuff I’ve got here,” said Johnson, an eight-year veteran who has played for seven different teams. “I try my best to pack light. If I’ve got to wear the same things over and over, I will.” Johnson, like other NFL vagabonds, needs to be…

The ultimate running game: a Tom Brady play for president

in Sports/Top Headlines by

Never mind what Tom Brady says about making a play for the White House: Fans are clinging to 0.0001 odds he’ll reconsider the ultimate running game someday. For a cover story, GQ magazine asked its 2015 Man of the Year if he’d ever consider a run for the White House — or at least for governor of Massachusetts. “There is a 0.000 chance of me ever wanting to do that,” Brady said. “I just think that no matter what you’d…
