Could pompous power couple Deion Sanders and wife Pilar actually be having money woes? The latest rumor mill is that the famed NFL grid-iron great and his “Football Wives” reality star partner might be in a financial pickle since their two pricey properties, which are for sale, have not sold.

Deion, who is known for signing his name by turning the first letter of ‘Sanders’ into a dollar sign, placed his Prosper, Texas 29,122 square foot home that was featured on his defunct reality show “Deion & Pilar: Prime Time Love” on the market back in 2009 for $21 million. The asking price of the mega manse has remained the same and he has not budged one iota.

The former NFL Defensive Player of the Year, according to real estate experts, is fumbling on his asking price. The home’s county appraiser estimates the value of the mansion at only a quarter of its current price tag, $5,410,602. The exorbitant asking price for the home has had tongues wagging, why would anyone pay $21 million for a home that is valued at $5.4?

The 109-acre ranch home is oozing with luxe features, including a two-story entry, 10 bedrooms, 3 dining rooms, not to mention a banquet dining space; indoor basketball court, bowling alley, indoor and outdoor pools, a billiard room, 5 fireplaces, a movie theater, 9.4 bathrooms, a hall of fame gallery, 9 covered parking spaces, a football field, a tennis court, a 12-acre lake and a guest house.

The newly inducted Pro Football Hall of Famer, who also works as an NFL Network analyst, placed yet another property up for sale a little over a year ago, a 5,025-square-foot condo in Dallas that is listed for $7.5 million. The property also still sits and has not received any takers.

Deion has certainly had his fair share of questionable money dealings. In 2000, he received a $56 million contract with the Washington Washington Football Team but only stayed with the team for one season. He also left a CBS network’s pregame show after two years in a serious contract dispute.

Meanwhile, as far as wife Pilar is concerned, she has brought her fair share of drama to the VH1 reality show “Football Wives.” Word on the street is that she no longer wants to continue her association with the hit series. Sources close to Pilar say that she is sick and tired of being painted as a villainess and that there is no love lost between her and the other women on the show.
