Steelers President Art Rooney II possibly to be nominated as a US ambassador

On St. Patrick's Day yesterday, President Barrack Obama, after meeting with the Prime Minister of Ireland said, "I am honored and grateful that such a dedicated and accomplished individual has agreed to serve as the representative of the United States to the Irish people. Dan Rooney is an unwavering supporter of Irish peace, culture, and education, and I have every confidence that he and Secretary Clinton will ensure America’s continued close and unique partnership with Ireland in the years ahead." So it is a large possibility that the owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers could soon be a U.S. ambassador to Ireland!
