Great coverage Dan and Verron.

Brooks Memphis Twilight Classic

Does anyone know where there are still photos available from this event?
Thanks.

but once ESPN airs their 8 minutes of coverage this weekend, websites ought to be able to post what they want.

barring internet footage makes the ESPN contract more valuable, more money raised for USATF

i understand copyright too, and suck screw it, we come for the races. so the oly trials and ncaas are taped by a corporate vendor, and then they disappear FOREVER from the light of day, and to the fans, unless someone posts. We need back channels. frankly, with very few exceptions, i don't care what any athlete has to say unless they're winning the olympics and spilling their guts about training and the experience of doing. i want to see action since it speaks louder than words. so how about a little less footing a a little more piracy?! the copyright holders aren't rushing to release DVDs or anything, so just use some anonymizers or SSH/onion tools and get the footage up. hum-kay?

as an educated person i understand there are copyrights, and legal situations that forbid flotrack to record any race footage, which is the obvious footage people come on this ssite to see, unfortunately not interviews, but its all good, I just wanted to know is there something we can do to help? I mean a petition or anything so u guys can get some rights to races, this is ridiculous I mean t and f and xc are dead sports as it is in most communities this doesnt help

why is the reason that there is no footage of any of the races an meets from america anywhere? cant someone just film an post??
regards

its rediculous that we can never watch any of these races in their entirity. the usatf is killing its own sport.

Will the race videos be posted on Flotrack?

they dont make any money. They actually pay the TV companies to broadcast the event and then the TV companies demand that there is no internet coverage. If you can believe that! What are we doing as a sport?

Can anyone suggest what we can do to get USATF to allow live feeds or an internet broadcast? Who do we write? How can we persuade them? I would have even paid a few bucks to watch this morning. I can't imagine they make a lot on the TV coverage. This is frustrating.
