Dan Rooney's greatest gift to Pittsburgh

Posted Apr 22, 2017
The greatest of all Steelers, though, in the strictest sense, has been Dan Rooney. His father, Art, founded the team and ran it for decades. Art's money, guile, perseverance and charm kept the team going for decades. But when Dan took charge of the operation, it became a truly professional football team. Art Rooney made them the Steelers. Dan Rooney made them the Steelers we know today. (Sporting News)
