Surtain and his wife, Michelle, have sued the builder, Landmark Custom Ranches. The Surtains’ complaint alleges they entered a deal in October 2007 to build the home for $5.2 million.

I would sit by the fireplace with a good book and a glass of good scotch. Also, a dog will be lying on the rug next to me and I’ll be smoking a pipe.

Surtain signed a $50 million 7-year contract in 2005 (he played 3-4 seasons under it) and couldn’t come up with the $1 million or so discrepancy to hold the house?

Same thing you do in a 1700 sq. foot home. You just have a lot more space to do it in!

That's what it sounds like, but I'm not Surtain. (HA!)
