We're building a giant Death Star over here! Quick, somebody get me George Lucas, a frickin' laser, Plax, Bryz, and another ace, this shit don't build itself.

In the continuing saga of athletes letting their Philly flag fly, we find John Wall, NBA baller extraordinaire, rocking his circa 1992-style Flyers hat. Nevermind that these large logo hats need to go away – and fast – let's take pride in seeing the best player in last year's NBA Draft (sorry, not you, Beaker) rocking the hat of his owner's direct competition. *Ted Leonsis owns both the Capitals and Wizards.

But wait, there's more!

Philly is better than New York and Boston at sex, and, according to Dmitry Chesnokov (wait, with a name like that, this has to be about Bryz, right? Fucking right, ey, and with a name like Smuckers, it's got to be good, too), Bryz has been trolling around Mother Russia in a Flyers hat.

He is technically a member of the team until at least July 1st, so this is kosher with the NHL… but it also tells you where his head is at. Quite literally, actually.

The Twitters:

Chesnokov told me he will have a picture soon. He and Lysenkov will have more tomorrow on Puck Daddy. 

Here's a random sampling of Bryz's recent Tweets. I'm beginning to develop an affinity for those red bastards. And to think we were once scared of them… In Soviet Russia, player rep you! Sports hegemony, yo.
