From profootballtalk.com:

“The XFL has a commissioner, and he’s a recognizable name for football fans.

Former NFL quarterback Oliver Luck will serve as commissioner and CEO of the XFL, the league announced today.

“Oliver and I share the same vision and passion for reimagining the game of football,” said Vince McMahon, XFL Founder and Chairman. “His experience as both an athlete and executive will ensure the long-term success of the XFL.”

Luck, the father of Colts quarterback Andrew Luck, gives some credibility to the upstart league that plans to begin play in 2020. Luck once served as president of NFL Europe in addition to his time as a player and college administrator and is generally well liked and respected in football circles. McMahon wanted someone with credentials in the football world, and that’s what he’s found.”

Marvel: “Infinity War is the most ambitious crossover event in history.”

XFL: *Introduces Oliver Luck as it’s commissioner*

Wow. Who would have thought that the XFL would be re-launched and Oliver Luck would be named the commissioner ALL before Andrew Luck throws the football again. 

Let’s hope that by the time the league gets playing games in 2020 that we’ll have at least seen Andrew throw a football in a preseason game.
