differences between RPC and SP in profiler

I am trying to capture sprocs being called in profiler. Why do I need
RPC:Completed as an example and not SP:Completed ? Wouldnt SP:completed
capture all the stored procedures ? What does RPC:completed do ? Please
provide any and all info you can about the differences..Bring up the profiler trace that was captured during the time the System Mon
itor log was also captured, group it by CPU, and look at the large CPU value
s for the RPC:Completed or the SQL:BatchCompleted events. This will indicate
the queries that are CPU i
ntensive.
When a SQL statement calls a stored procedure using the ODBC CALL escape cla
use, the SQL driver sends the procedure to SQL Server using the remote store
d procedure call (RPC) mechanism. RPC requests bypass much of the statement
parsing and parameter proce
ssing in SQL Server and are faster than using the Transact-SQL EXECUTE state
