2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread

[Brandon]

I'm not sure if this is still the case,  but 15 - 20 years ago the club used to pay for housing i.e. players stayed at hotels for free with teammates as roommates  and the team would cater food during practices/gameday any day they were at work.   They also had deals in place with some local companies that would supply vehicles,  discounts at restaurants,  other perks.      Back then their was no issues with players making sufficient money to live. 

Quite a stark contrast to Goldeyes players who were making peanuts and usually living at strangers houses during the season.  Almost like super fans would adopt players and allow them to stay at their houses rent free.   Our admin was doing this as recent as 5 years or so ago.
