Yahoo! Plenty of People are Searching for Sidney Crosby

While blogger Mike Chen was searching the web for pictures of Lindsay Lohan and Hilary Duff making out, he noticed that Sidney Crosby is one of the more popular search queries on Yahoo's engine.


Here is Mike's take:

The NHL must be pleased -- people actually know who one of their players is! He's more popular than Jon "Napoleon Dynamite" Heder, lazy hungry people ("Quick and Easy Dinner)", racist radio folks, and fancy-ass cell phones. However, he's not quite as popular as hot British actresses.

But one can dream, right?

It certainly is outstanding that Sidney Crosby has entered popular culture enough to be Top 10 on Yahoo! searches. The NHL, Crosby, and his agent must be doing something right if The Kid has entered the conciousness of mainstream America.
