Friday’s back page of the New York Post depicted Bill Belichick replacing his hoodie for a Darth Vader helmet, with the headline “Return of the Jet-I: Gang Green vs. Evil Empire.”
A spread inside the newspaper takes it to the next level, with Rex Ryan filling the role of Han Solo, Michelle Ryan as Princess Leia, Mark Sanchez as Luke Skywalker, Nick Mangold as an Ewok, Darrelle Revis as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Joe Namath as Yoda and of course, Belichick as Darth Vader.
Tom Brady makes an appearance, and he’s either playing himself or the Post editors ran out of time to give him a cool costume. It also looks like Randy Moss is included as a storm trooper, so that makes sense.
