"unexpected semi" or mild erection. derived from Tim Henman's mediocre skills somehow allowing him to reach the semi-finals of tournaments, albeit unexpectedly.
So I'm sitting in church and all of a sudden, I get tim henman.

Unusual phenomena whereby loosing actually increases a sportmans following. Normally followed by an avid following every year at Wimbledon by an army of rich tennis lovvies. In recognition of his ability to loose to just about any player able to hold a racket he has been given the nickname tiger. A very apt description if Tigers are gutless, boring and serial tennis champ loosers.
Fortunatley, for Britain, he is still playing Tennis in the hope one day he will win a tournament. Currently he is hoping to enter the womens tennis tour since he he has all the prerequisites for being female
I think we might loose thet football , its looking like another Henman day

A sportsman who was always good and was top 10 in the world for a very long time. Despite the medias effort to will him on to win Wimbledon he never could quite manage it, this meant that the media would no doubt slate him when he was eliminated from any major tournament.

A testimony to the British spirit to keep on trying but despite being in the top 10 players of the world for a very long time, that simply isn't good enough for the majority of the British public who take great joy in seeing him fail.
Tim Henman will NEVER win wimbledon and the British media will ALWAYS support him then laugh at him when he fails like the evil shits they are
