Mario Williams $2M Home; Across from Jim Kelly's Place



When the Buffalo Bills were courting defensive end Mario Williams for a job with the team, he spent an evening with Hall of Fame Quarterback Jim  Kelly and his wife Jill at their home just outside of East Aurora.  Now, after signing with the Bills he's moving in across the street .




The Buffalo News reports the Bills' $100-million dollar player has purchased a house on Woodcrest Drive, Kelly's street, for $2 millon. The large stone mansion was built by  local attorney Kenneth Bernas who - about a year ago - was convicted of swindling millions of dollars from clients and investors and using the money to build the house, The News reports.

The 9,389 sq. foot home features over 13 rooms (5 bedrooms, 6.5 baths), according to the Realtors' MLS listing. It features a 5-acre lot, four car garage, several fireplaces and "limestone, marble and cherry flooring" throughout.
 
Do you think he can be happy here? Current real estate listings for the Houston area feature two similarly sized homes : A 9,500 sq. ft, 5bedroom 5 baths for $5.7 million and a  a similar 9,400 sq ft. home 5 bed,7 bath home listed at $3.9 million.

From Bing.com... here's a look at his new digs (below).

Overpriced
If one thinks that sports has skewed compensation for what they do, you can always protest by not paying those outrageous fees for tickets, food, parking, etc. Don't go see the Bills.
