XFL Football Discussion Forums

Part of Luck's value was being the face of the league rather than McMahon as they sought to distance themselves from 2001. That's not really needed here. CFO makes a lot of sense.

Pretty excited that things are finally starting to move.

I went to the Apollos-Commanders game -- the crowd was hot. And they were really locked in on the game, much more so than the crowd at the XFL game in DC I made it to.
