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...

It'll be Union Jacks (sorry, Flags) when a Scot gets further than English Tim...

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.

The difference between Andy and Tim is that Andy is actually good at tennis.

And he actually won more easily than Tim. Yey England!
And then he'll lose next round. Stupid Canada!

Tim is actually good at tennis... He's been in the top ten for the last 10 years or something like that, which proves how good he is.
BUT, he's been unlucky that while he's been attempting to win Wimbledon, he's had to compete with Pete Sampras and Roger Federer, who were/are so much better than everybody else on grass. Thus he will never win it. Murray might have a chance in about 10 years, when he's big and Federer has retired....

Oh and everyone knows that:
- If an Englishman wins something he is English
- If a Scotsman wins something he is British
- If at Scotsman loses he is Scottish.

That's the sad way in which this country works.....
