Seriously? That surprises me, for some reason. Possibly only because I've never watched soccer, so I don't know much about the game.
Soccer is very strategic. It's not as flashy as say basketball, and certainly there's less scoring, but it's non-stop motion. Displays of impressive athleticism are the rule, but again, nothing flashy as in basketball. I was surprised that it's supposed to be Tony's favourite sport as well, but I'm not sure why. Maybe because it's just not on the radar of many Americans.
And Tony likes to be able to have sex in the middle of the game if it's going slowly.
Ha! So true.
Honestly? I could see these two talking about almost anything. They're both intelligent guys with lots of life experience, and broad interests. They also both like a good, friendly debate. So you could totally have them talk about the Tour de France, or anything you like. Steve is kind of a closet, proto-geek. He has the potential for bringing as many tidbits of seemingly useless information to the table, as do Tony and Reed. Just about different subjects. He's like... the geek that wasn't - he's got the baseline traits that make up a geek, but he doesn't seem to have gotten overly fannish about anything (aside from his shield, America and possibly art), as Tony is about machines, and Reed is about SCIENCE!
