Matthew Berry Love Hate

The Love/Hate focuses on players who Mathew feels are being over or under-drafted. Matthew originally wrote Love/Hate, 100 Facts, and a Bold Predictions column for Fantasy baseball also, but penned his final editions of these in 2014 so as to focus on football.

He mostly emphasizes that a player on the “Hate” list is not players that Matthew believes will play poorly, but instead players that are being drafted too high or began too often. For instance, in the pre-season article preparing readers for the draft, a usual first-rounder on the “Hate” list might be thought by Matthew to deserve to go about five spots lower than he normally does, while later-round players on the “Love” list are players Matthew would draft a round or two higher than expected

Matthew Berry Fantasy Football | 100 Facts

He writes a number of larger fantasy articles annually for what is now known as ESPN’s Fantasy Football Draft Kit. At first, there is “100 Facts”, which is both printed in ESPN The Magazine and posted on ESPN.com.

Thirdly is Mathew’s pre-draft Love/Hate.

Most importantly, the Fantasy Focus Football podcast is ESPN’s most downloaded original-content podcast (and second overall behind only the podcast version of Pardon the Interruption). The Fantasy consistently ranks among the top ten podcasts on iTunes and in August 2009, was the #1 audio podcast on all of iTunes. The Fantasy show has won a total of five awards from PodcastAwards.com, such as”Best Sports Podcast” in 2009, 2011, and 2012, as well as the overall “People’s Choice” podcast in 2009 and 2012.

Matthew Berry Podcast

He got his start in his first foray into audio podcasting in 2007 with the Fantasy Forget (Four Get) where Matthew gave “four players to leave off your roster this week.”He and fellow ESPN fantasy analyst Nate Ravitz were announced as the full-time hosts of the Fantasy Focus Baseball Podcast in June 2007 and, soon after, the Fantasy Focus Football Podcast. Nate was replaced in 2015 by Field Yates. Their shows produced by Daniel Dopp and have featured several recurring ESPN guests including Stephania Bell, Mike Clay, and Tristan Cockcroft.

The podcasts, much like Matthew’s columns, involve a mix of fantasy advice and comedic musings. Common features on the shows such as the “Name Game,” “Over-reaction Theater,” “Mailbag,” and “Double Trouble.” The Fantasy Focus uses user-created drops for certain features and other funny/off-kilter sounds, occasionally simply to test if the producer is paying attention.

He announced on the last episode of the 2013 Fantasy Focus Baseball Podcast that he would not come back to host the podcast for the 2014 season. The announcement came immediately after Nate Ravitz announced his departure from the show.
