RUANAIDH - (RU-AH-NEE) is the Gaelic spelling for Rooney.

Part memoir, part anecdotal history of Pittsburgh’s North Side, where the author grew up, and part football book, “Ruanaidh” follows to its conclusion the extraordinary life of Art Rooney, Sr. - the Chief. The strange-looking title (pronounced Ru-ah-nee) is the Gaelic word for Rooney.

Candid personality portraits of almost everybody in the Chief’s wide orbit are mingled with tales from Art Rooney, Jr’s own high school and college football-playing days, from his time as a failed drama student in New York, from his six months of boot camp training with the Marines, and from his subsequent career as personnel director of his father’s football team, the Pittsburgh Steelers.

R/C Driver did a story on the Steelers Super Truck this year. Owner Mike Rooney had been wanting to do a Steelers Theme Truck for years. It was not until Mike saw someone else doing it - “Hardcore Racing”, which is a leading aftermarket parts company that supplies high-end metal replacements. Mike phoned up Damon, the owner of Hardcore Racing, and together they designed a very cool truck. Mike unveiled this at Superbowl XL two years ago - and since then it has been featured in a few stories such as this one in “RC Driver”.
