Even Jimmy Fallon isn't immune to Linsanity. On Thursday's show, the "Late Night" host wore his best flannel shirt to impersonate Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder and honor the Knicks pointguard with a new version of "Jeremy." The new title? "Jeremy (Lin)."

January's Tim Tebow/David Bowie parody song was a huge hit, and as long as athletes keep becoming overnight cultural sensations, we have a feeling Fallon would be glad to don even more wigs in their honor.

That, or Lin is going to have to keep being awesome so we can re-write the national anthem. One or the other.
