PHOENIX — It's 'Triple Threat' time with the 12Sports Team.
This week Cameron Cox, Lina Washington and Luke Lyddon, give their takes on three of the hottest sports topics in the Valley. How 'hot' are they? Let's find out!
The first topic this week...the Arizona Cardinals. Cam, Lina and Luke address the beatdown the Cards took from the Niners in front of the hometown. In the first segment (0:00-5:20), the team discusses the whether the outcome was a surprise or expected. And what about the Pride of Perry, Brock Purdy? How about, 4 TDs, untouched and stadium chanting his name.
In the second segment (5:20-10:25), Cam, Lina and Luke express their concern with the Suns. When in comes to the Big 3, is it time to 'Panic' or still be 'Patient'? The 12Sports team is anxious to say the least with the team's inability to get the Big 3 on the court together.
In the final segment (10:25-14:55), the 12Sports team steps to the plate to discuss the D-backs offseason moves. Cam, Lina, and Luke specifically address Lourdes Gurriel Jr and his new 3-yr, $42 million dollar deal with the team. Find out if our team believes the 'price' for Gurriel Jr. is 'right'!
