12/01/09 Owner Interview with Caseroc of the Indy 500s:

Who is caseroc? My name is Casey Bloom. A recent college grad from Seattle. I went to Pacific Lutheran University, majoring in Communication. I have done a fair amount of work around government and politics in my short professional career.
How did you get started in HDB? I got started in HBD after playing Hoops Dynasty for awhile. I tried it once and felt it was too deep. I thought that it took too much time. I decided to try it again and now I love it. I am very close to dropping my hoops teams and just focusing on HBD.
What are your favorite real-life sports teams? I was born and raised in the Seattle area. I am a huge Mariners fan and attend 40 or so games a year at least. I also follow the University of Washington and the Seahawks .
What is up with your team name? I like choosing team names that fit with the area. I have attended the Indy 500 and I really enjoy watching open wheel racing.
What is your plan for your team? I feel like I have a very good set up with the 500s. I have team right now that is in contention for a playoff berth. I have what I think is a strong minor league system that will allow me to be very good in a couple of years
Who are your rivals? My rivals are Andersaa of the Vancouver Bobsled team and Patterba of the Portland Voodoo Hippies. I know them both personally and always want to beat them.
Who is your favorite player in the Show II? Favorite player on someone else's team? My favorite player is Eugene Coffie in my minor leagues. He was my first pick in what turned out to be a very strong draft for me. I think he is going to be a star. I also really like Jerry Mullaney on my team. I think I definitely got the better of Patterba in that trade.
What do you like about HDB? And what would you change? I like HBD because it is so deep, almost too deep sometimes. I am a huge baseball nerd and this is a great outlet for that nerdiness. I love and hate trying to explain HBD to other people. Most just dont understand the appeal. I have always loved simulating sports teams on video games. I always end up not playing the games but instead just going through seasons and trying to build good teams.
