My grandfather was offered a contract by the Red Sox back in the late 40's, but he was making more money as an electrician at the time so he turned it down. The only other athlete I know is David Patton who was my neighbor growing up and was drafted in the 12th round last year by the Rockies.
Other than that, I know a few swimmers (if you consider swimming a sport) such as Megan Quann, but that's about it.
