Football career
Papadakis' family has long been linked to USC athletics. John (Yiannis) and his brother, Taso, both played football at USC. Dr. Ernest Schultz, his maternal grandfather, played basketball for the Trojans. Despite the family's close ties to the United StatesC, Demetrius, the younger brother of Demetrius walked on to UCLA's football team and was a member of the 2008 team. Petros had intended to play football for the UCLA Bruins, but the Bruins lost sight in recruiting him and cancelled his tour to campus.
Papadakis began his college studies at the University of California, Berkeley. He left the Cal Fall football training camp undetected in the middle of the night and hitchhiked back to Los Angeles after being homesick after one week.
Papadakis scored 16 touchdowns while playing for University of Southern California. He was named USC's team captain in 1999 and 2000. However, he broke his foot in August 1999, requiring multiple operations that caused him to miss the season. Papadakis returned in 2000 after months of recuperation. His colleagues lauded this achievement, with Papadakis named as the season's "Most Inspirational Player."
The Meadowlands defeated Penn State in the Kickoff Classic's opener in 2000 with a score of 29–5. Papadakis scored a touchdown and gained 29 yards on 11 attempts, playing on his backbone. The Trojans were ranked 8th in the national polls on October 3–0 and started the season 3–0. However, the team disbanded and finished with a 5–7 overall record.
In 2000, the Trojans set a 2–6 conference record, the only time the team had finished in last league play. Papadakis has consistently branded himself "the captain of the worst team in USC history" since his first year in broadcasting.
Papadakis played in the 1998 Sun Bowl, where the team lost to Texas Christian University, scoring a touchdown during this game.
Papadakis' first broadcasting experience came as he was a tailback for the USC football team, where he became a regular interviewee in Los Angeles. Papadakis said, "I just feel like the media is starving for someone to say something different than "I just want to play really hard this week." That's all fine stuff, but I work with it in meetings every day. I'm in possession of six hours with coaches."
Television and movie career
Papadakis started airing on FSN in 2002 and 2003 and took up as a sideline reporter for FSN's High School Game of the Week. On FSN, he also appeared as the host of the USC Magazine Show.
With Barry Tompkins, Fox Sports Net recruited him to cover national Pac-10 games in 2004. When FSN appointed Petros as the country's top color analyst, he had no booth experience.
On Spike TV, Papadakis anchored Pros vs. Joes for three seasons. For the show's fourth season, the network revealed in late 2008 that it would swap Papadakis with former New York Giants defensive end Michael Strahan.
On FSN, Papadakis held a variety of games from 2006 to 2010.
Papadakis appeared on KNBC Channel 4 in the fall of 2007 as Fred Roggin's co-host on The Challenge, which followed NBC's Football Night in America on Sunday evenings. Since then, he has been on the show, most recently completing his 11th season with Roggin.

Radio career
Papadakis' first radio experience came in 1998 when he was a junior tailback at USC.
Papadakis began working on radio in lieu of his television duties in the summer of 2001. On the now defunct station KMPC-1540 AM, Pete Arbogast co-hosted the weekly USC Insider with Pete Arbogast. The Ticket is a product of the United States Central Carrier. Papadakis, a former contest reporter, appeared on television shows in 2002 and 2003, and he hosted the "Bonus Hour" in January 2003. On weekdays, Papadakis and Mark Willard co-hosted a show from 9 to 10. Papadakis has also appeared on KROQ-FM in Los Angeles as a regular visitor on the Kevin and Bean morning show.
On KMPC, "The Petros Papadakis Exhibition" began in January 2004. It was written by Craig Larson and starring Cornelius (CORN DOGG) Edwards and traffic reporter Sabina Mora. Brian Vieira became the show's producer in June 2005.
"I'm 'n Luv (Wit da Clippers)" and "I Love Yee Doyers" were among Papadakis' musical parodies such as "I Love the Dodgers" and "I Love Yee Doyers." He was also known for his "Pop Culture Report" which chronicled the lives of young celebrities in Hollywood.
Papadakis resigned from his 1540 role at The Ticket in October 2006 to concentrate on his television broadcasting. The majority of KMPC's remaining local employees were laid off within a month of his resignation. Sporting News Radio sold its interest in the station on March 30, 2007, when it became a Korean language station.
Petros returned to AM radio on 570 kHz, a Los Angeles-based station, co-hosting the Petros and Money Show with Matt "Money" Smith on January 8, 2007. Because of a merger between Fox Sports Radio and KLAC, the show was nationally syndicated two years ago. Before being taken off from the national network in January 2014, the network carried the program nationally, but it remained as a local show.
Papadakis served part-time for the USC men's basketball team as the team's public address announcer from 2004 to 2016.
