PATTI ANN: STAY WITH CBS 2 NEWS
AND CBSLA.COM ON DEVELOPMENTS TO
END THE STRIKE.
JEFF: THE RAMS ARE GOING TO BE
LEAVING FOR NEW ORLEANS
SATURDAY.
PAT: BUT FIRST, THEY'RE GETTING
IN SOME LAST MINUTE PRACTICE.
SPORTS DIRECTOR JIM HILL IS LIVE
IN THOUSAND OAKS.
JIM?
JIM: PAT, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
AS YOU CAN JUST SEE, THE RAMS
ARE IN REALLY GOOD SPIRITS AS
THEY WRAPPED UP PRACTICE JUST A
SHORT WHILE AGO AS THEY'RE
GETTING SET TO GO TO NEW ORLEANS
AND TAKE ON THE SAINTS AT THE
SUPER DOME IN THE NFC
CHAMPIONSHIP GAME ON SUNDAY.
THE WET WEATHER DID NOT STOP THE
TEAM FROM GETTING IN THEIR WORK
IN THE GRASS FIELD RATHER THAN
THE GIANT TENT THEY CONSTRUCTED
EARLIER IN THE WEEK.
THE RAMS AREN'T LETTING THE RAIN
SERVE AS A DISTRACTION OR EVEN
AS AN EXCUSE AS THEY PREPARE FOR
THE BIGGEST GAME OF THE YEAR.
I THINK IT'S JUST HAVING BEEN
IN SOMEWHAT, YOU KNOW, SIMILAR
EXPERIENCES EARLIER IN THE YEAR
WHERE WE HAD TO DEAL WITH SOME
OF THE THINGS THAT WENT ON IN
THE COMMUNITIES, THE FIRES.
OUR PLAYERS SEEM TO ADAPT TO
WHATEVER WE DEAL WITH.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO ALLOW THE
WEATHER TO BE ANY BIT OF AN
EXCUSE, EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT
EXACTLY LIKE THE ENVIRONMENT
WE'LL PLAY IN BEING INDOORS.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO ALLOW IT TO
BE A DISTRACTION.
WE KNOW WE'VE GOT A GREAT
OPPORTUNITY TO PLAY AGAINST THE
SAINTS FOR THE CONFERENCE
CHAMPIONSHIP, AND THAT'S WHAT
OUR FOCUS IS ON.
JIM: YOU'VE BEEN DOWN THIS ROAD
BEFORE.
WHAT HAVE YOU TOLD YOUR
TEAMMATES ABOUT THE DOs AND
DON'T Z -- DON'Ts AS YOU GET
TO THIS POINT?
THE LESS MISTAKES IS GOING TO
WIN THE GAME.
WE'VE GOT TO BE SHARP THROUGHOUT
THE WEEK SO OUR COMMUNICATION
CAN BE IMPECCABLE ON SUNDAY.
JIM: AQIB TALIB USING THE WORD
IMPECCABLE ON SUNDAY, THAT'S
EXACTLY THE WAY THE RAMS ARE
GOING TO TAKE ON THE SAINTS ON
SUNDAY.
WE'LL HAVE MORE AS THE RAMS AND
THE NEW ORLEANS SAINTS ARE GOING
AT IT FOR THE RIGHT TO GO ON TO
SUPER BOWL LIII WHICH YOU CAN
SEE RIGHT HERE ON CBS 2.
PAT: THE AFC CHAMPIONSHIP IS
ALSO THIS WEEKEND WHERE THE
PATRIOTS TAKE ON THE CHIEFS.
YOU CAN SEE THE GAME LIVE RIGHT
HERE ON CBS 2 SUNDAY AT 3:40 IN
THE AFTERNOON.
JEFF: THE WINNERS OR HEAD TO THE
SUPER BOWL WHICH YOU CAN SEE
