    Steelers owner Dan Rooney is immersed in duties as U.S. ambassador

    In Dan Rooney's front hall, there is a painting of Native Americans setting up camp besides a river, sometime in the 1700s.

    It's an elegaic piece of art that anyone with a passion for American history -- and don't get Mr. Rooney started on his family's trip retracing the Lewis and Clark expedition -- might be expected to choose for his house.

    Except that this house is the U.S. ambassador's residence in Dublin, Mr. Rooney is the ambassador, and the painting, by artist Robert Griffing, "shows the Indians on the very spot where Three Rivers Stadium would one day stand," he told a visitor proudly.
