That's cool. Good for him. Hopefully, this breeds even more confidence.

We need that kind of success. Keep it up Rams

My wife, of Asian descent, says, "Cool, good for the Ori's". She is about as un-PC as one can get. Not sure where she gets that from...

Taylor Rapp's Mom is of Chinese decent
..... and his father is Canadian!
Which affords Taylor Rapp dual-Canadian-US citizenship.

Taylor Rapp grew up in Bellingham, WA just twenty minutes south of the Canadian Border on InterState 5. Swiss Family Canuck has had some great times in Bellingham thru the decades....fine restaurants and great shopping for the gals made it a frequent spot-off point.

Chuckanut Drive winding south from Bellingham with ocean to the right and cliff-face to the left, down towards the tulip fields of La Conner, is a poorman's Big Sur!
FYI TomSlick: A great drive is alleged to be had in a 1997 SAAB 900 SE Talladega Convertible sportster eh!!

Cheers from Vancouver, BC!
Go Rams!!!

What is an Ori? suspect it means Oriental but I have not heard that term before. (I have a good friend "Scotty Show" whose first wife was Laos and his second wife is Japanese. Show does not have much of a filter when he talks either. I remember when he was at a PTA meeting years ago when his kids were in Jr. High. One of the teachers complimented him on their math ability. He said, "What did you expect? They're half Asian."

Not sure how this dual citizenship works. I'm not trying to take this thread in the wrong direction.

Awesome Rapp had a great game and well deserved!

Just wondering if my dad was born and raised in Canada and moved to the US at 18 and then became a US citizen. Does that make me eligible for dual citizenship? Just curious as I have a bunch of relatives that still are Canadian citizens.

Maybe I can PM you to keep this thread on topic. Just sparked a thought in my head.

Hope this was a break-out game for Rapp. I thought he had great potential since he was drafted. If I could be an NFL player I think playing safety would be the most fun whether or not you in-laws were Asian (Scotty refers to his in-laws as the Asian Mafia) or Canadian.

Canuck: I suspect that you have read Keegan's classic "Six Armies in Normandy."

What I find interesting is Rapp had been getting beat up around here the last couple of weeks. Can't cover. A huge liability. Down in the box, fine, otherwise, no way. And then he goes out and becomes defensive player of the week. Funny thing is, he has his fingertips on 2 other passes but they would have been unbelievable picks. The guy could have had 3 or 4 picks Sunday! And he's the team's second leading tackler.
