Rams report, 12/29

* Friday's injury report: funny how the Rams playing a lot better and being a lot healthier than past seasons go together. They'll be fully loaded for the game Sunday in Seattle, with no one missing practice the past two days. Craig Dahl (knee), Cortland Finnegan (thigh), Steven Jackson (foot), James Laurinaitis (back), Austin Pettis (shoulder) and Scott Wells (knee) are all listed as probable for Sunday. No one else on the report.

Seattle is also about as healthy as a team could ask to be for the final game of the regular season. CB Walter Thurmond is out; T Breno Giacomini and LB/Ram-killer Leroy Hill are both questionable. Marshawn Lynch, Sidney Rice, Golden Tate, Earl Thomas, Red Bryant and Marcus Trufant all probable.

Kickoff Sunday at 3:25.

* Go tell it... reports after the Rams' last home game are that Sam Bradford and Danny Amendola are going to climb Mount Kilimanjaro in the offseason. It's part of an expedition (if that's the right word) led by Springfield, Mo. philanthropist Doug Pitt (who has a rather-famous brother and sister-in-law) to raise awareness for clean water projects in Tanzania. Jeff Fisher, who ascended the mountain last year as part of his work with the Wounded Warrior Project, thinks more Rams players will join in on the trek. Sounds very cool, even if the highest climb RamView's ever made was to my original Dome seats in row WW. Without oxygen!

* Ex-Rams report: Thaddeus "Thad" Lewis will get the start at QB for Cleveland Sunday in Pittsburgh against the Steelers. Should he get the win Sunday, per ESPN.com, he'll be the only Cleveland starting QB with a winning record since the team was re-franchised. (Jake Delhomme was 2-2.) Best of luck.
