He was a legend.

Much respect, RIP.

Only thing you can say is all the players that played for him loved him.

Sad day for the NFL. Great guy who came from a humble family. Lets remember all the good he did for the NFL.

As much as I hate the Steelers even I have to say the Rooneys know how to run an organization.

RIP.

yeah, at the end of the day he was a good one. RIP, we lose a little every time one of this caliber passes.

RIP condolences to Rooney family and Steeler nation.

iconic figure. Really turned the Steelers around. Before he took over Steelers were like the Browns of today. Got Noll, Bradshaw, built the Steel Curtain, and won 4 superbowls (in the 70's). Added 2 wins and 4 appearances after that run.
He will be missed but remembered forever. RIP

The Rooney family are a solid, well respected ownership organization.

Two of the best super bowls ever played resulted in two losses for the Cowboys by a total of 4 points against the Steelers.

A legendary facilitator of steroid usage and concealment and beneficiary of ridiculous play calling. RIP

Sorry to sound harsh, but will this give the refs and Goodell and Blindidiot-Dino incentive to get them another favored SB win.....

A true original NFL guy rip

RIP Mr. Rooney. You made the league better and the league is now lesser without you.
