Big Tony says...?


At one point he gets hit during the big game, and says "Can of___. Can of ___ and I'll be fine."

And that's where the wife and I differ. I think he says, "Can of cola" and she thinks he said "Can of corn". So...which is it?

It's a long way back to Eden, sweetheart, so don't sweat the small stuff.

cola i imagine.
its more fatting.
or he could want to start to get skinny.
and could have said corn.
but his chracter throughout the movie would suggest cola.

just let all sink in.

That's what I thought(he's always asking for a cola when he's winded or knocked down) and saying corn then would be out of character. I will admit it doesn't sound clearly like cola but he was winded and woozy from the hit so that might have muffled it enough to sound like "corn".

im pretty sure its can of corn. Its a term used in baseball, i dont know why he would be saying it for football though.

A "can of corn" is a routine, near impossible to screw up play in baseball. Although this is a football movie, obviously, the term is so commonplace to sports fans that it certainly translates from sport to sport. .
If I'm not mistaken, the big guy says this after getting crushed by a few guards in the course of handling this "can of corn." The self deprecating context as well as the choice of a baseball term both contribute to what really is a rather humorous comment.
At least I think so.

He says "can of corn". That means an easy catch. Stock clerks in grocery stores used to knock cans off the top shelf and catch them in their aprons.

I jus played it over and over. He definentl said Can of corn.
