Thunder Muscle Matchup of the Week, NFL Locks & NBA Integrity Talk

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.
