Commissioner Randy Ambrosie offered a solution Friday to CFL players looking to make more money: Find an off-season job. "Our players at the end of the season are free to work and frankly I personally encourage them to do that," Ambrosie said in an interview on the CFL website. On Thursday, Ambrosie issued a statement saying, "players are required to honour their contracts as they are registered with the league." Many CFL players currently hold down off-season jobs but Ambrosie's comments are sure to upset others who feel they're being dictated to. The league has already drawn the ire of the CFL Players' Association by directing its teams to stop paying players off-season bonuses until a new collective bargaining agreement is reached next year.
