Whether it be city living or life in the suburbs, athletes are usually found in some of the sweetest mansions money can by.
In 2012, there were some pretty impressive properties put on the market by some of sports’ biggest names — from Wes Welker to Pat Riley, there were condos, estates and beach-front villas on the market for millions.
