"As the 2011 Mr. Olympia, Heath picked up a sweet trophy and a nice check for $200,000. Of course that's still less than the minimum salary in the NBA, which is $473,604."


Is the headline spurred only by his supposedly failed basketball career?

 the former baller joins iconic muscle legends Lee Haney and Arnold Schwarzenegger as kings of weightlifting.  they failed to mention Dorian yates and Ronnie coleman. how disrespectful.........Th at shows you how knowledgable the media is about bodybuilding. all they know is Arnold was it and that's it

Really?  Does that make you feel better or validated?  Why?  Bodybuilding is a fringe activity for muscle extremists and schmoes.  No amount of yahoo coverage will change that. :-[

I figured he was about 5'8"-9" but I never really paid attention, 99% of bbers are sawed off fucks so it makes sense to assume they are all midgets, so when I saw 5'11" I was shocked and awed.
