Because of his father's lucrative pro career, it stands to reason that Sanders Jr. grew up well off. So when he recently tweeted about ordering "hood doughnuts," his father roasted him on Twitter, reminding him that he has a $1 million trust fund and comparing him to the Huxtables from "The Cosby Show."
The fantastic exchange (via ForTheWin):
Gotta get the hood doughnuts almost every morning. If my doughnuts don't come in a plain white box, I don't want them!

It appeared to be in good spirit. Sanders Jr. responded:
@DeionSanders lol I still love the hood's doughnuts

Deion also responded to a Twitter user:
@ColtinNied @DeionSandersJr naw just having fun with my son like we always do. He was exposed to the best of both worlds and that's rare!

According to Spotrac, Sanders made over $33 million in NFL salary, and Baseball Reference says he made over $13 million in MLB.
