Maine sports fans usually follow the Boston teams.  There are also minor
league baseball and hockey teams in Portland.  The baseball team draws very
well.

I don't think any of the sports stations in Maine get significant ratings,
but I think Clear Channel's main interest is getting clearances for their
network programming, like Jim Rome and Fox Sports.
