He knows nothing about Parma, has never been to Europe, and doesn’t speak or understand a word of Italian. So Rick reluctantly agrees to play for the Panthers–at least until a better offer comes along–and heads off to Italy. Yes, Italians do play American football, to one degree or another, and the Parma Panthers desperately want a former NFL player–any former NFL player–at their helm. Against enormous odds Arnie finally locates just such a team and informs Rick that, miraculously, he can in fact now be a starting quarterback–for the mighty Panthers of Parma, Italy. But all Rick knows is football, and he insists that his agent, Arnie, find a team that needs him. Overnight, he became a national laughingstock and, of course, was immediately cut by the Browns and shunned by all other teams. With a 17-point lead and just minutes to go, Rick provided what was arguably the worst single performance in the history of the NFL. In the AFC Championship game against Denver, to the surprise and dismay of virtually everyone, Rick actually got into the game. Rick Dockery was the third-string quarterback for the Cleveland Browns.

She increases her bad-assness in every book. The highlight is that Cat is able to keep figuring out her powers. While that does continue to explore the ghostly powers that Cat keeps borrowing, it's a bit of a tangent from the rest of the underworld story lines.Īnd while it's not a bad thing for a hero to do the right thing just because it’s right, it was a strange motivation, especially given all the pain that she and Bones have experienced in the last 5 books as they continue to risk their lives.
