Thunder Muscle Matchup of the Week, NFL Locks & NBA Integrity Talk
Description
Join hosts Will Alimonos and co-host Zach Bishop for a fast-moving, opinionated episode covering everything from airline deals to the biggest sports controversies of the weekend. Expect lively banter about Frontier’s new Go Wild $300 annual pass (what’s the catch?), the pros and cons of budget carriers, and a playful imagining of what a pass-powered bachelor party might look like (00:01:37 ).
On the NFL front the hosts unpack Week 1: the shocking pre-kick ejection and spitting incident that altered the game narrative, Christian McCaffrey’s last-minute injury scare and subsequent strong outing for San Francisco, Caitlin Clark’s season-ending announcement, plus fantasy fallout for names like Jamar Chase and Derrick Henry. They run through picks and betting angles for major matchups — Commanders at Packers (00:11:06 ), Jaguars vs. Bengals (00:15:13 ), Giants at Cowboys (00:18:42 ), Bears vs. Lions (00:22:17 ), Rams at Titans (00:29:09 ), Patriots at Dolphins (00:30:15 ), and the tongue-in-cheek Thunder Muscle Matchup of the Week (00:31:09 ).
Listeners also get play-by-play reactions to dramatic finishes: 49ers at Saints (00:38:10 ), Bills at Jets (00:40:47 ), Seahawks at Steelers (00:47:38 ), Browns at Ravens (00:50:15 ), Broncos at Colts (00:52:02 ), Panthers at Cardinals (00:53:47 ), Eagles at Chiefs (00:54:51 ), Falcons at Vikings (00:56:32 ), Buccaneers at Texans (00:57:49 ), and Chargers at Raiders (00:59:27 ). Betting notes include favored bets, parlays, a weekly “lock,” and contrarian fantasy insights.
The episode also pivots to college football — why this past week felt underwhelming (01:02:04 ), UCF’s hot start, bounce-back teams to watch, and quick takes on the weekend’s matchups.
Finally, the show closes with NBA drama: the growing scandal and investigation (01:04:09 ) and the implications of Kawhi Leonard’s Clippers contract situation (01:10:52 ). Will and Zach debate ethics, potential punishments (fines, draft consequences, cap adjustments), and broader integrity concerns for the league.
Expect sharp opinions, humor, sponsor bits, listener-friendly betting ideas, and candid fantasy advice. If you want to know which games Will and Zach are backing, which parlays they’re excited about, and how to think about Week 2 betting and fantasy moves, tune in for a full recap and preview wrapped in quick-hit takes and on-air chemistry.
