How the Bengals surviving?
Barely ... and I say this as a fan. Sounds just as bad as some public schools
- They are one of four teams that offer neither a family room nor daycare for the players’ families on gameday.
- They are the only team that closes their cafeteria on the players’ day off, even though many of the players come to the facility on off days for extra preparation and recovery.
- The club did begin to provide three meals a day on Wednesdays only this year. But they are one of two teams in the league that don’t provide three meals a day each day for the players.
- The locker room is another major issue for the players. Approximately 50% of the showers don’t work; they either don’t provide warm water or there isn’t enough water pressure. They face consistent plumbing issues that limit the amount of functioning toilets the players can use.
- As an improvement from last year, the team decided to offer dinner to players once a week (Wednesday)
- Unlike nearly every other team in the NFL, the Bengals do not employ a full-time dietician
But they are getting a new locker room
Cincinnati’s new locker room, per Hobson, involves new “ceilings, flooring, restrooms, and showers” atop the actual lockers themselves. The target end date is by Week 1 of the season.
how is the Hunt family so high?
