That's exactly what he does, with great success, in \u003ci\u003ePlaying for Pizza\u003c\/i\u003e.\"--\u003ci\u003eUSA Today\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAfter providing what is arguably the worst single performance in the history of the NFL, third-string quarterback Rick Dockery becomes a national laughingstock. Cut by the Cleveland Browns, and shunned by every other team, Rick insists that his agent find a team that \u003ci\u003edoes\u003c\/i\u003e need him. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAgainst enormous odds, Rick lands a job--as the \u003ci\u003estarting\u003c\/i\u003e quarterback for the Mighty Panthers . . . of Parma, Italy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Parma Panthers desperately want a former NFL player--any former NFL player--at their helm. And now they've got Rick, who knows nothing about Parma (not even where it is) and doesn't speak a word of Italian. To say that Italy--the land of fine wines, extremely small cars, and \u003ci\u003efootball americano\u003c\/i\u003e--holds a few surprises for Rick Dockery would be something of an understatement.","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48841266397389,"sku":"9780385344005","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/1529\/9533\/files\/imageloader_933853aa-213e-4a3e-b938-8be3b09f0a9f.jpg?v=1792025797","url":"https:\/\/booksatmidnight.com\/products\/playing-for-pizza-1","provider":"Books At Midnight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
