    “Them there [hills]” (usually pronounced more like “them thar”) is a common grammatically incorrect country-English phrase to basically mean “those [hills] over there”.

    “How much’choo wonna bet Ah coul’ throw uh pigskin over them thar mountains?” -> “Are you willing to place a wager on my ability to throw an American football over those mountains over there?”
