For the sports junkies among us, WatchESPN was updated this morning giving the app a vastly different user interface as well as the ability to watch Monday night football straight from your tablet.

The app now follows the Android user interface guidelines, which aim to make the user interface more uniform across the Android platform. Not only that, you can now access scores, news, and live feeds straight from the main menu, making the app much easier to navigate. WatchESPN has essentially been redone completely from both a content and a visual standpoint.
