Sprint Is the Suckiest (according to Google Search)

by Evan Shamoon on October 4, 2007 at 08:32 AM



There may not be much hard science behind it, but word on the street (more of a superhighway, really) is that Sprint is the "suckiest" cell phone company out there, to borrow the vernacular of the times. According to a Google search of the aforementioned adjective, at least.

When you type the query "______ sucks" into Google, alternately filling in the name of the various cell providers out there, Sprint clearly took the makeshift Trophy of Suck by returning the most search results:

Here are the stats (number of search results), if you're interested:

Helio: 427
T-Mobile: 745
Alltel: 3,500
Verizon: 20,000
AT&T: 22,500
Sprint: 31,000

We're not pretending to be scientists in lab coats over here or anything, but the results of this survey mean nothing whatsoever, or do they?
