Hi!! It's Anne!! I will help you the best I can with this question. I agree with the person on that site (in comments above). You will hear "them" but the grammar should be "they". There seems to be a big debate on this project. Some people say that them would be correct, and some say that they would be the best. I would most say what I said above, that "them" is most commonly said but "they" is technically correct. Look at those links I gave you and hopefully I helped guide you to the correct answer. Sending oodles of luv have the best day EVAH! (:
