C'mon all you patriots, it's that time of year again.
A major sporting event is upon us, one we actually host year after year, and yet I haven't seen one solitary flag in a car or displayed from a house window.
I guess we'll have to settle for yet more isolated shrieks of "GWON TIM!!!!" and endless "This year?" reports in tabloids accompanied by the inevitable "I'm touching cloth" pose he seems to feel indicates personality [URL]http://www.overcompetitive.com/sponsored_athletes/henman_bio.gif[/URL]
So why the lack of flags symbolising your patriotic duty to...er...watch it on the tv then?
"Because he sucks and we never win"
Not like International Football championships then...

Drug addict that he is.
Everyone seems to have forgotten about the Canadian one now.
Yes let's all live the best of our lives through sports...
I doubt anyone will realise he's Scottish, or just ignore it for "England's new hope!" before crushing the little guy under millions of tonnes of pressure then screaming at his failure to meet with our expectations.
Patriotic duty?
Sport?
Pffft.

It'll be Union Jacks (sorry, Flags) when a Scot gets further than English Tim...
All the England flags were confiscated at Wimbledon - at least, some interviewery guy was interviewering some people, who had theirs taken away for no apparent reason.

Aha, I couldn't watch the first 89 minutes of it.
I was in the car for about 20 minutes all "Bah, England are 1-0 up" and I got home ust in time to see Zidane score 2.
woo.
And the number of those fecking flags last year was unbelievable.
I went to Alton Towers on the day of the Portugal match.
Listened to it on a crappy radio, but it was fantastic.
Ahhh.
I hate you English.
