Oh snaps. Penn & Pops dropped a new Episode and they had a lot to discuss. Brian Kelly got fired from LSU, the NBA season is back, MLB is almost over and the Indianapolis Colts are (currently) the best team in the NFL. Shhhh; we aren't ready talk about it. Along with that, the Pacers have more injured players than the league should allow, players (and coaches) seem to have gambling issues, and Pops is into trading cards again.

Episode 73 (A Lot Has Happened) is a smash episode full of all the thrills.

Enjoy, homies.

The Boys are BACK. After a long hiatus (due to the NBA Finals and Tyrese Haliburton), Penn & Pops finally came back outside to deliver the Season 5 Premier Episode. It took 'em a second to get back in the groove, but once they did... the MAGIC happened.

Episode 72 is full of all the craziness that makes The 317 Sports Project what it is. Humor, seriousness, great talks, some sports debates along with Actors, Athletes & Atrocities.

Enjoy Episode 72, peeps. ✌🏿✌🏾

The NBA Finals are here and we have a super dope matchup between the OKC Thunder and our Indiana Pacers. Two small market teams with a Superstar, upcoming stars, deep benches and pivotal role players. If things go as planned, this could be one of the NBA Finals in recent history.

In our latest Episode, NBA Finals Breakdown, we (Penn & Pops) break down the starters, bench play and keys to the series. SGA is gonna get his, Tyrese Haliburton must be aggressive, Jalen Williams is a super beast and the Pacers' bench may have a slight edge. Who do we have winnin' the series, you ask?

Well, tune in and find out. Enjoy Episode 71, friends. ✌🏿✌🏾

Episode 70 is another doozie brought to you by Penn & Pops. The sports world is low key slowing down as the NBA Finals approach. Can the Pacers make it to the Finals? Will the Fever be alright without Caitlin for the next couple weeks? Are the Colts gonna be okay after the passing of Jim Irsay?

We cover all that and sooo much more. PS - Aaron Rodgers is a douche.

Enjoy Episode 70, friends.

As the sports (they care about) start winding down, Penn & Pops set their focus on the NBA Playoffs and the NFL Draft (through the Colts perspective). The Knicks & Pacers are currently up 2-0 and could be headed towards an "Old School Battle" in the Eastern Conference Finals. The Thunder seem to be the team to beat in the West, but with Steph Curry hurt, Ant Man (and the Timberwolves) could be in prime position for an NBA Finals run.

Penn & Pops also discuss Byron Scott's sexual assault allegations, Caitlin Clark (and the Fever) and Gregg "El Jefé" Popovich's legacy.

Enjoy Episode 69, homies. ✌🏿✌🏾

Pops does it again, friends. The 2025 NFL Draft is right around the corner and Pops delivers ANOTHER classic episode full of his knowledge, expertise and our favorite segment around the draft.. "Pops' Picks." He's pretty darn good and jumping into the minds of Chris Ballard and the Colts organization. Let's see how many he gets right this year. 

Enjoy Episode 68, homies. ✌🏿✌🏾

The Final Four is here and the NBA Playoffs start very soon. Penn & Pops take a deep dive into both along with so much more. Episode 67 (Busted Brackets) is a phenomenal episode covering ALL THE SPORTS action.

MLB, NFL Draft talk, Carmelo Anthony's 2025 Hall of Fame Induction, Pacers Playoff spot. Oh, and Frank Reichs heading to Stanford. No, we don't understand it either. With that said, you're gonna love Episode 76!!

Man. We can't even tell you how difficult it was to keep up with the NBA and WNBA trades along with the shenanigans as it pertains to Super Bowl LIX (that's 59 for those who don't know). Why are the Super Bowls in Roman numerals anyway? Moving on, this episode is slightly different than most as Penn and Pops focus on "Hot Topics" as opposed to "Around The World." 

Of course Luka goin' to the Lakers was the big BANG comma but some things are shifting in the NBA and the fellas LOVE IT. Along with that, the Indiana Fever became a favorite in the Eastern Conference over night. With key veterans additions like DeWanna Bonner, Natasha Howard, Sydney Colson and Sophie Cunningham, the Eastern Conference Finals are a sincere possibility. Penn and Pops take a deep dive into the future of the Fever. The "Caitlin Effect" is real.

Big ups to Pascal Siakam being named an All-Star, Sabonis got the snub, rest up Dejounte Murray and the Colts still suck. Episode 64 (Who's Where Now?) is quite a doozie friends.

Enjoy. ✌🏿✌🏾
