First Things First
Alabama Crimson Tide :: Damian Strohmeyer/SI


Yes, Alabama won the national championship but I know you want to see a gallery of AJ McCarron's girlfriend, Katherine Webb, so let's get that out of the way first.
Wildcard Weekend Roundup
Speaking of Webb, she was the definitive breakout star of last night's BCS Championship. Brent Musburger, LeBron James and Darnell Dockett were among those impressed with the current Miss Alabama. As for the game itself, it was a snoozer and the most exciting play may have been when Tide center Barrett Jones shoved McCarron, his roommate, after near Delay of Game call in the fourth quarter. After the game, ESPN analyst and former Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz seemed on the verge of tears while SI swimsuit model Kate Upton poured salt in the Fighting Irish's wound by comparing them to the Jets.
Mellow Out
Carmelo Anthony didn't have the greatest night either. The Knicks forward converted just 6-of-26 shots in a 102-96 loss to the Celtics, then tried to fight Kevin Garnett in the tunnel leading to the locker room and again by the team's buses after the game.
Notable Lady Of The Day
Hannah Davis :: Derek Kettela/SI


Since Jimmy has yet to work a day in 2013, I thought I'd pay tribute and name Hannah Davis, the girlfriend of Derek Jeter, today's Notable Lady of the Day.
Paging the Style Police
Congratulations to Barcelona and Argentina's Lionel Messi, who won the prestigious Ballon d'Or for a record fourth time. Unfortunately, he chose to accept the award while wearing a polka-dot tuxedo.
The RG3 Meme
Robert Griffin III has a partially torn ACL and MCL in his right knee and could miss a chunk of next season. But if you think that would stop people on the internet from making a RG3 injury meme, you clearly haven't spent much time on the web.
