Owner Interview with grapeape

 

grapeape has been around long enough to play 303 seasons while picking up 1 series title.  He’s only been in Addicted Users for 4 seasons currently but had an earlier run of 4 seasons.  Let’s see what we can find out about this HBD owner:

 “What part of the country do you live in?”

“Lifelong resident of Minnesota.”

“ What is your favorite team and when did you start following baseball?”

“Minnesota Twins, I grew up in rural Minnesota and did not have cable tv as a kid.  I would sit in our kitchen and listen to the games on the radio – somewhere around 1980.”

“ Who was your favorite player growing up?”

“Kirby Puckett”

“ What is your favorite baseball memory?”

“Jack Morris’ 10 inning Game 7 of the 1991 World Series win for the Twins.”

“How did you find HBD?”

“So long ago, I don’t recall, more than likely a yahoo search back in the day.”

“How many teams are you comfortable running at one time?”

“I do 7, but I would probably do a better job if I only had 2 or 3 teams, but I enjoy 7 so I stick with it.”

“How do you like to build your teams?” 

  “Each team is different, but I am definitely a draft and develop type while utilizing Free Agency.”
                                                                                              
“What is your favorite HBD team (past or present)?”

“Never really picked just a favorite one of my teams. Each team has their own little identity.”


“What is your favorite aspect of HBD?”

“Love the ML themed leagues or leagues where teams at least stay the same.  Would love to be involved in an NFL themed league one day on HBD.”

“What would be the one thing you’d change about the HBD?” 

 “Recruitment/advertising to attract new owners.  With filling worlds becoming more difficult for some leagues it seems they really need to put more effort into marketing.”   

“Well that wraps things up for me, grapeape.  Appreciate you taking the time.”
