About

Hey everybody, my name is Hayden Kim and I am a Eugene, Oregon native.

I've been an avid sports man my entire life, and only a couple years ago--2 years to be exact--I was introduced to B/R and the world of sports writing, and honestly haven't looked back.

Since then, I have amassed thousands of readers, a short stint as a NBA Featured Columnist, publications on LA Times, CBS Sports, etc, and most importantly, a priceless experience that I will never forget.

I plan to continue to study print and digital journalism in the future as I head for college in a matter of months, and I will always look back to this experience.

But enough of me. All you need to know about my sports affiliations are that "I Love my Ducks," I am a die-hard Laker fan, and I am a huge sports fan in general.

I look forward to meeting and talking to all of you and I hope I can learn as much from you as you from me. This really is a great platform and I hope all of you take full advantage of it.

My Favorite Quotes are: "Momma there goes that man!" "Hand down, man down!" "Those who do not make mistakes, are those who do not try."

NBA Featured Columnist from September 8, 2010-March 30 2011.

    No problem man,

    I'll just cut and paste the exact quote from the B/R style guide:

    Dashes

    We want to use em-dashes (—) instead of double-hyphens (--), en-dashes (–) or any other form of dash. The em-dash is the longest type of dash and is created by typing SHIFT-OPTION-(dash) on a Mac keyboard and ALT-0151 on a PC (hold down ALT while typing 0151 on the numeric keypad).

    (NB: If you're working on a PC without a numeric keypad, you'll have to copy and paste em-dashes as necessary. Here's one to get you started: —)

    There should be no spaces on either side of the em-dash. Proper formatting looks like—this.
