Good if boiled and bad if fried. But always very starchy and the only calorie you gain is fat.

Sweet potatoes are the best, but i wouldnt say either are bad. Assuming of course they are cooked in a heathy way (preferably baked). The reason being is that sweet potatoes are digested slower and therefore do not cause an insulin spike which can cause you to gain fat.

potatoes are good as long as they are not smothered in butter, sour cream or anything else fattening.1 cup of mashed potatoes (or 1 medium baked potato) is only 80 calories.

They are great Carbs for energy boosting, however it is good to exercise with eating potatoes. If you don't then they equal bad carbs. Its great for sports.
