    In 'Rocky II' when Rocky is asked, "Rock, you got anything derogatory to say about the champ?" and he responds, "Derogatory? Yeah. He's great!" is he saying the worst thing to say is "he's great" because he's that good or does he not know what derogatory means?

    Earlier in the movie Rocky has a problem reading the "dummy cards" for the Beast After Shave commercial. He says he has a "relaxed brain". Later when asked how far he went in high school he answers, "9th". He has that deer-caught-in-the-headlights look when the 'derogatory' question is asked. I say he does not know what the word means.
