    I'm definetly on this bandwagon.  I remember the World Cup in '84(?).
    Cameroon never lost game.  Unfortunately they never won either.
     Having tied every game they didn't get past the first round. I
    loved their gutsy performance back then and I love it now.
    They are the only team in World Cup history never to have lost.  If any
    plave needs more World cup births it is Africa.  They are proving
    that right now.  Also I'm tired of people finding excuses for their
    winning ways.  They are in a tough devision, and they have to get
    used to other styles ans much as other styles have to get used to
    theirs.  Lets giv'em their due.

    Anybody remember *KY Jell* ?  You know, the only U. Kaintuck fan
    to haunt these hollow halls, the one who dejectedly left the company
    after $10,000 in small bills tumbled from a certain Emery Air Express 
    package a year or two ago.
    
    He's from Camaroon.  Bet he's going ga-ga about now.

    Seriously though, I think that Cameroon can count themselves a
    little unlucky. They could have buried England, but they didn't.
    A spirited fight back by England, with a few deft touches here
    and there, gave England the game.
    
    It would not surprise me if Cameroon are not the First African
    team to win the World Cup, but not this Year.
