Mo Egger plays it pretty close to the middle IMO. And, if anything, I think he's more forgiving than he needs to be at times.
This city's media, and especially WLW, are MUCH, MUCH easier on the home town team than you would find from some of their counterparts that are employed in bigger cities. And I get that, 700 has a relationship with the team and is invested in their success. It only makes sense to not have a Greg Doyle type of personality in these roles. And fwiw, I've heard people even call Lance a hater, which is borderline insane. Lance is about the biggest homer you're ever going to find in local radio. Hell, 1530 is called HOMER!!!
Look, I hate to break it to you, but if think Mo is unfair or negative then you don't want a sports talk host, you want a cheerleader. I'm really not sure you could ask for much of a fair, unbiased take. I think he does a great job being open to both the good and band, and even better job articulating why he feels whatever he does.
Ken Broo and Mo Egger are the two best guys in this town for sports. Lance is good if you like hearing about Hostess cupcakes, his kids and Reds talk 95% of the time.
