"Okay, Arnie pardon the brain damage, but why don't you tell me exactly where Parma is."
I picked this quote because it shows that rick doesn't everyone where Parma is he just wants to get to play football some where know matte how long it takes and that Rick is kinda stupid and i guess you could say hes had is far share of concussions. Rick is not that good of a QB but that's all he knows what to do so hes going to Parma to play but he doesn't even know were that is and now hes trying to find out were Parma is little does he know that Parma is all the way in Italy. I think when he finds out hes going to be a little mad with his agent i think rick was thinking of getting singed with a team in the U.S .not out of the the U.S.
