Nationals General Manager Mike Rizzo Wears Blackhawks Jersey to Winter Classic

Washington Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo (and let me emphasize the WASHINGTON NATIONALS part) wore something to the Winter Classic that might stun you.

“It’s a Bobby Hull jersey,” the Chicago-born Rizzo said to the NHL Network’s Billy Jaffe with a big smile. “It’s a throwback.”

When asked why he wore that to the game, Rizzo said, “You gotta be true to your beliefs and true to your youth. This is the team I grew up rooting for.”

Naturally, Jaffe asked if this would cause any issues?

“I think it will,” Rizzo responded.

Bold.
