really looking to watch all (or most) of the diamond league meets live this year...if any of them even come close to what Doha will be, then they'll all be worth it.

I'm thinking of buying the $25 package from Universal Sports, what do you guys think of their coverage? what's your experience from last year? I bought it for the world indoors meet, and while it wasn't the best, they didn't do stupid stuff like cut away during the laps of the longer races like the 3k.

I signed up the other day. I have gotten it the past few years and love it. No commercials and knowledgeable announcers. Here is a coupon code from TFN boards.

Right now, if you enter the code “C2LTRACK”, you will receive $5 off the package.

It's good. You'll go in wanting to only watch your favorite distance events and you'll come out enjoying all the other events as well.

So I assume it won't be on ESPN or regular TV networks?

I bought this package and it has been a disaster. I have not been able to login for the last two weeks. I get a message that my password was revoked. I have no idea why this was done. I watched a few meets from places (motel rooms) other than home but used the same laptop. For over two weeks, I have tried to contact Universal customer support but have never gotten a reply or had a chance to communicate with a real person. The only way to do this is e-mail which they have not answered or I found a 800 TELLUS number. This connects to an answering machine and the messages are not returned.

For the years that I have been subscribing to Diamond League and big city Marathons via Universal Sports I have always had good viewing experiences.

I would recommend this option for big time T@F and Road Running events.
