Sports and the Motorola Droid X

ESPN is arguably the nation’s leading sports network. They dived into the smart phone world and made their own applications. Users can pop out their case and access every stat and figure that ESPN has to offer. Best of all, it’s free. The one thing that the ESPN app is missing is a widget, and this is where Bing Sports Widget comes into play. This second fiddle search engine has a customized widget where users can update the scores of their favorite teams.

As the NBA is entering the second half of the season, fans are getting ready for the playoffs with NBA League Pass Mobile. Forget the stats and score updates this time around though. This application provides access to many live, streaming games so fans can watch Kobe choke on the Los Angeles Lakers time and time again. Don’t forget your screen protector with this app. Fans can tap the screen to pause and swap over to other games quickly and seamlessly.

SportsTab, one of the original sports-focused phone apps, is not to be outdone by these other widgets and apps. It provides live, play by play box scores for nearly every professional sport, even the rising Manchester City football club. With their newest release they even have play visualization. This amazing feature shows previous plays much like a coach’s clipboard. One can see all the X’s on the court which usually consist of many missed field goals by Kobe Bryant.

Yahoo has made their first fantasy football application for the many fans who need to update their team on the go. This is a seamless program that has turned the fantasy football fan base on their heads. Users can create their own personalized leagues or join in huge pools with thousands of other players and fans. Players will need some accessories for this app because phones may fly during the ultra-competitive ‘survivor’ fantasy league. Beautiful, easy to read graphics will not only give the fantasy league stats, but will also update scores and plays by the minute on an easy to manipulate interface.

If all these sports highlights, or even a New Year’s resolution has inspired some fans, Absolute Fitness is a great way to organize workouts and nutrition. This customizable program can offer healthy alternatives to favorite recipes, count calories, and will even alert users to drink more water. For the more daring, it can even estimate blood pressure and body fat percentage.

Sports fanatics are not satisfied with catching the final score in the Sunday newspaper. They require live updating scores to see whether or not the Lakers choked again in another game. This device will have fans grinning from ear to ear with these amazing sports apps.
