Again we will see where they sign come signing day.
You're reaching for the race card when the first thing that comes to mind is a kkk site when you see a screenname like storm front associated with a team name related to an actual storm. I guess if i see the name cane from now on i should consider a cane field and slavery instead of the football team.
Jackass needs to change screen name. Absolutely unacceptable. This is a sports board. Let's not get sidetracked by this stupidity

It's the "optics" that looks bad, I mean really bad. Everyone knows what the word "stormfront" represents. 1964 happens to be the year that The Civil Rights Act was enacted, which many white supremacist, including Don Black (founder of stormfront), credits 1964 as the year that America turned it's back on them.
Could the screen name Storm_ Front 1964 just be a coincidence? Maybe. However, considering the facts that I just mentioned above, even you must admit that the screen name seems extremely suspicious.
[MENTION=8384]poncho0091[/MENTION]- Props for embracing the alternative thought. I obviously do not personally know the guy. The screen name could very well be a huge coincidence. I just find it highly unlikely to be the case.
I'm not going to ascribe bad intent to OP as I wouldn't know him if he was standing next to me, but as [MENTION=10511]reg[/MENTION] pointed out, the optics of the screen name are not very favorable. If, and its only an if, OP is a racist, then I'd rather know who I am dealing with than an undercover racist.

I couldn't figure out why you dudes were getting on the OP for his screen name. I googled his screen name and see that there is a white supremacist group that using that name.
Ya know, I never would have even thought about ascribing racist motivation to the OP for using that screen name. This is a cotdam Hurricane site. A hurricane is a storm. My cotdam weatherman talks about "storm fronts" all the cotdam time. You politically correct azzholes want to go after weather men too? GTFOH.

Props poncho. Too many on this board can’t take an “L” for any reason.[MENTION=8384]poncho0091[/MENTION]- Props for embracing the alternative thought. I obviously do not personally know the guy. The screen name could very well be a huge coincidence. I just find it highly unlikely to be the case.
I have no problem admitting when i might be wrong. Im not naive enough to believe racism doesn't exist. I think sometimes i get fed up watching people use it as a crutch. I believe the skepticism is justified in this case.
