I was told today that an event I am involved with helping to coordinate next year is considering bringing Chuck Noll in as a guest speaker. I quickly volunteered to be his driver/liason for the event.
My question for the board is: If you could spend an hour or two with Chuck Noll what questions would you ask him?

Everything I read seems to lead that he has divested himself from the game. Start with general conversation, family, the event etc. If you get an opening take it.

Chuck has constant back pain. Lionel Taylor told me at times it's severe. Needs a vehicle that easy to get into.

DocGil has it right. General conversation, see where it leads. What an honor though!
And unfortunately, his back pain is pretty severe, from all I've heard, as well. God Bless The Emperor.

I interviewed Johnny Bench a few years ago. We didn't talk baseball. Talked about his artificial knees and golf.
Stick with life conversations.

Nothing dealing with Chuck Noll is ever off topic!
