CARACAS, VENEZUELA – MARCH 13: Geissy’s husband leaves the hotel with their suitcases to go home on March 13, 2019 in Caracas, Venezuela. Geissy has stayed for 4 nights with her husband and her 6-month-old baby in a hotel room at Hotel Renaissance because they had no electricity nor water service in their home. Venezuela suffered a massive blackout last Thursday, affecting at least 18 of its 23 states. Some families still struggle to go back to normal life. The causes of the failure have been not determined yet. The blackout has intensified the tension with opposition blaming government corruption and Maduro accusing his U.S.-backed adversary of sabotaging the national electricity system.

Baggage

Patrick Peterson wanting out was one thing.  We got over that.  The big thing is he’s still here and wants to be here.  He was upset for like a minute.

Ramsey wants out of Jacksonville only two weeks into the regular season.  I mean, I guess that’s better than many Miami Dolphins players who wanted out after week one.

He’s also very outspoken.  He’s publicly criticized a number of players from other teams.  The outspoken part is alright I suppose depending on the topic.  However the last thing this young Cardinals team needs is a guy who can’t keep his mouth shut.

A veteran like Patrick Peterson should be the model for a young corner like Murphy, not Ramsey.  Ramsey might not even want anything to do with that anyway.  Yes Ramsey has plenty of talent but it isn’t worth the headache he would bring.

Next. 5 Cardinals who stepped up vs. Ravens. dark

Just think, as soon as the Cardinals lose for the first time with Ramsey on board, will he be asking out as well?  He likely wants to be with a contender anyway, not that he would have much say in it.
