they may not show any of the qualifying but they will probably show some of the americans qualifying jumps. they will at least show the winning jump and top american from the finals(hopefully the same person) and then probalby the final miss of the competition.

in 2000 they had several jumps of the top 5 or 6 vaulters. it was only the finals, im willing to bet that there will e better coverage. they showed aboutthe same for mens and womens

yup, best bet is coverage on the pv finals cause on the days of the pv trials, theres other finals for other events, which a tv station might want to cover.

Are the qualifying and finals for men and women going to be available pay-for-view for the trials? Are they going to be available for the olympics themselves pay-for-view? If they aren't, they are missing a huge market and tons of money by not offering people a chance to watch ALL of what they want for a price. Maybe USATF might consider making the money themselves and offering it???

They can't because the TV rights for the trials were sold to the highest bidder. And USATF doesn't have any control at all over the Olympics.
