Frank predicts the West

The West (Ewok) Bracket, on the other hand, remained incredibly stable, with only one low-ranked team, The Gov't Mule, advancing to the second round.

The #1 seeded Leonard Cohen's will see how they compare to The Vampire Weekend. Cohen's offense sent The Johnny Cash home early with a 103-47 pounding, despite coach Tony Signore missing the game due to "Illness", which was immediately announced as "Not at all anything to do with his visit with Michael Phelps." Meanwhile, The Weekend made their first 10 shots against the smaller Beatles team. Still, The Cohen's seemed primed to advance to the sweet-16.PREDICTION: The Leonard Cohen's 83, The Vampire Weekend 76

The Dire Straits will have to play a more solid game against The Warren Zevon's. The Straits, who saw a 14 point lead over The Flaming Lips shrink to just 3 at one point, are facing a feisty Zevon team. Also, with The Zevon's ability to draw fouls took The Green Day out of their game, The Straits could be in for a rocky ride.PREDICTION: The Warren Zevon's 75, The Dire Straits 60The Van Morrison were able to hit some critical free throws down the stretch to stave off The Elvis Costello's in a 58-57 gut-wrencher. Meanwhile, The Beau Brummels need a repeat performance of their fast 2nd-half start against The Lou Reed's. One has to favor The Morrison for their defense, but it's hard to win if you can't score.PREDICTION: The Beau Brummels 88, The Van Morrison 66

The Gov't Mule, seeded #10 in the bracket, is ready to take on The Yeah Yeah Yeah's in what some are calling the "Yada Yoda" game. The Mule was successfuly in stymieing (SPELLING???) the outside shooting of The Pretenders, while The Yeah Yeah Yeah's relied on their 3-point scoring to drive to a victory over John Fogerty. Signore, asked for a prediction, sank his head and said "The Mule ain't givin' up the acreage yet. They're ready for the...well...yada yada yada." in a speech reminiscent of the late Ronald Reagan introducing a Borax ad on "Death Valley Days".PREDICTION: The Gov't Mule 72, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs' 67
