Like many of you I too have had to do hard work out in the freezing cold and I did it for a hell of a lot less money than any player to ever wear stripes. I worked hanging billboards (sometimes 60 feet up) back in the late 70s (think blizzard of 77) when it was done with paste and lots of water and the temperature was south of zero most days. 
I'm just not willing to hand out sympathy pills for young millionaires getting paid way too much to be out in the cold to practice playing a kids game.  (ok, perhaps a mans game, but it's still just a game) 
If I could stand on a 2 foot ledge soaking wet in zero weather with 30mph winds then football players can run around catching balls and tackling each other in better conditions. 
And by the way, sometimes those billboards had electrical shorts and the entire steel backing became electrified.. That's always fun when you're soaking wet.. Needless to say that is not a profession for the faint of heart.. 
And just when you thought that football couldn't get any more pussified.. lol

I suppose it's all about the job we choose. I have watched sniper fire bounce off the ground mere inches from me and I have seen a vehicle 2 in front of me get blown up. So I'm not willing to hand out sympathy pills to someone that had to work in the cold while looking forward to returning to the warmth and security of their home at the end of the day.

I will say my employer did provide me with everything I required to perform my job and hopefully yours did as well. I see no problem in suggesting the Bengal's employer should do the same.
