New Orleans Saints' Zach Strief, Tim Lelito to coach lawmakers in partisan clash at Tiger Stadium

New Orleans Saints players will trade black and gold for blue and red Sunday (April 19) to coach state lawmakers in a charity flag football game that pits political foes against each other in Death Valley.

Those who attend the event at LSU's Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge get a chance to see Democrats huddle around their coach, tackle Zach Strief, and Republicans take calls from their coach, guard Tim Lelito.

Proceeds from the Truce for Troops Bowl this year benefit the families of the Louisiana National Guardsmen who were killed last month in a helicopter crash.
