The luck of the Rams finally ran out. Twice this season _ against Arizona and Green Bay _ St. Louis was on the verge of losing, only to be saved by late-game fumbles by opponents.

Fullback Paul Smith is out this week and probably next week from injuries sustained in a wedge-busting collision that landed Smith and Detroit's Frank Davis in a hospital.

Wayward defensive end Anthony Hargrove returned to the St. Louis Rams' practice field on Wednesday, the first step in reclaiming his starting job and his teammates' trust. ``Anthony spent the week in self-inflicted doghouse,'' coach Scott Linehan said. ``He's got to work his way back. ``I think the worst consequence is you feel you've let your teammates down.'' Hargrove was fined an undisclosed amount after skipping two days of practice ...

St. Louis Rams defensive end Anthony Hargrove, who skipped two days of practice and meetings last week while dealing with personal issues, was reinstated to the team Monday.
