Watch the presentation!

Butkus started as a football player for the University of Illinois and became a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1979.  He played nine seasons in the NFL for the Chicago Bears and was one of the most feared and intimidating linebackers of all time.  He has placed a high priority on giving back as a way to honor those who made his career possible and to protect the game for generations to come. An example of this is establishing IPlayClean.org.

If you were to meet a pro football hall of fame linebacker, an icon known for toughness and determination, who is considered the best linebacker and perhaps the best defender of all time, what question would you want to ask?
