This is THE PROJECT where Laurence Payne and Ethan Cole, two die-hard sports fans and “general nobodies” track down their sports heroes.

They don’t do handshakes and sit down interviews. They’ve created a sports bucket list and they’re crossing off their insane ideas one by one.

Why ask Otis Nixon about the 1992 World Series bunt when you could reenact it? Why talk to Buster Douglas about boxing when you could just pay him to fight you? They make the impossible possible and try to avoid killing each other while doing it.

Raw, gritty, and nothing but real, THE PROJECT blurs the line between fan and athlete and puts lost legends in situations you’ve never seen before. It’s too late to turn back now. Welcome to THE PROJECT.

Episode Descriptions below:
