Send a text 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 gam...

Send a text 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 s...

Send a text 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 k...

Send a text 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,...

Send a text 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...

Send a text 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."

Send a text 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.

Send a text 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...

Send a text Happy Thanksgiving from Penn & Pops. We have a lot to be thankful for this year. We're 61 Episodes in and still rockin' friends. Thank you for the continued support throughout the years. We wouldn't be here without you. Thank you to the friends we've made, the memories we have and the emotional support as our teams let us down from time to time. Go Colts. Go Pac...

Send a text The Colts are mediocre, The Pacers are .500 and the Indiana Fever are in the process of starting a new regime. In other words, Indy sports are somewhat in "disarray" at the moment. Penn & Pops have faith they'll turn it around, but it's gonna take time. Episode 60 (A November to Remember) details those topics and much more. World Series, College Hoops Updates, N...

During "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly,&qu...

Send a text Our brother, Stephen, passed away October 9th, 2023. To celebrate his legacy we decided to record Episode 58 on the anniversary.. and we're happy we did. We got to laugh and discuss sports; something he loved a great deal. We love you, Bubbaville. Always thinkin' of you. During the Episode, we discuss the NFL season lulls. Too many injuries, officiating and rule changes have...

Send a text That's right. We said it. Sean "Diddy" Combs is an absolute dumbass.

What a great time for sports and entertainment, huh friends? Episode 57 is right on brand w/ Penn & Pops. During The Good, The Bad & The Ugly, Penn d...

Send a text Man. Oh man. We gotta admit. Episode 56 is straight FIRE, friends. Of course, we had to show mad love to James Earl Jones; a true LEGEND. Along we that, we covered it all. College Football, NFL Updates, Baker Mayfield and our "Athletes, Actors & Atrocities" segment is absolutely hilarious. We put it all the way down on this one and we can't wait for you to watch/list...

Send a text That's right. Our (much needed) Summer Break is over and we're ready to get back behind the microphones. We hope you missed us just as much as we missed you. We kicked off Season 4 right as we had A LOT to catch up on. Penn & Pops are BACK!! The Summer Olympics were absolutely wonderful, Kevin Garnett's jersey should be retired in Minnesota, the Philadelphia Phillies...

Send a text In perfect Penn & Pops style, we realized we did the whole first segment of the show without the television backdrop on. Class "Us." It's fine. We're fine. Other than that, Episode 54 "Season 3 Finale" is a DOOOOOZIE of a finisher. We can't believe we're more than 50 episodes in and still rockin'. During the show, we discussed the upcomi...

Send a text Of course, Episode 53 is full of sports, but we took a deep dive into mental health awareness as it's Men's Mental Health Month. It's important that we discuss topics outside of sports and Men's Mental Health hits home for both of us along with so many others. Episode 53 is a phenomenal show full of all the good vibes.

Penn doesn't think she gets the respect and notoriety she deserves. Pops doesn&a...
