You know in the old days when we had a question we were too ashamed to ask a friend or loved one we would just drive to the nearest rest stop and copy little pearls of wisdom from inside the bathroom stalls.
I guess I’m just old-fashioned that way.
Don “The Predator” Frye, former PRIDE and UFC warrior, is proving that the pen is truly mightier than the sword.
Frye has been treating fans to his little Don-isms for some time now over at the IFL website with his regular “Dear Don” column. And in true holiday spirit, he’s re-gifted a vernacular fruitcake for the hundreds of IFL fans around the globe.
Here’s a sample of advice from the Frye-guy:
Dear Don,
What’s a good Christmas present for my girlfriend that doesn’t involve expensive jewelry or me wandering into a women’s clothing store? I feel like I don’t know how to shop for a woman, but I really like this girl and want to get her something good. At the same time, I don’t have a ton of money and am not ready to go the engagement ring route. What should I get her?
You don’t want to buy her a ring or any other expensive jewelry, huh? Congratulations. You’re not as dumb as everyone else. I don’t know where people get the idea that jewelry is some kind of Christmas cure-all. Maybe it’s from those damn commercials during the football games this time of year.
Anyway, you’ve already decided not to go that route, and I’m proud of you. What you do now is put your girl in the car and drive to the strip club. Take her in and buy her a lap dance for Christmas. The good news is that, even if she doesn’t like it, she can’t return it.
Who knows, maybe one thing leads to another and you both go home with a present. Call it a Christmas miracle. If it doesn’t work and she gets mad at you, hey, at least you’re already in the strip club. What better place is there to get cheered up after your girlfriend leaves you? Merry Christmas, partner.
And there you have it. I have to admit the man knows his stuff. Those of you with a significant other please remember, don’t try this at home.

I guarantee that man is lonely.
Don Frye is funny with his column. Got to love the guy.
donnys great ,in real life[hearsay] i guess he’s as honest as the days long ,he’ll tell the truth even if it kills him..a real stand up american.. i would love to be there to hear him and couture converse…wowee…that mma fans would be mma americana….hotdogs ,applepies,and a kick in the face
Great article MMAMANIA getting away from your old days of ufcmania and only being one dimensional in your reporting. If you want a great article to feature how about checking out this one http://www.sherdog.com/news/articles.asp?n_id=10538. Maybe you can help teach some of these mma fans (at least the ones who can read) and see the UFC as God, the real ugly face of Dana White and the Fertita brothers. A monopoly is not a good thing for the sport, the fans, or the athletes.
His responses read like the old Deep Thoughts by Jack Handy, if Jack Handy wasn’t such a queer.
I’ll alway remember him taking a punch square to the jaw from Tank Abbot and going on to win the fight. One of my favorites.
Honestly the stash makes him look a bit gay to me. That letter does make it like he has a problem with women.
hey mania - how come you post this lame article about frye, but not the news about him catching a beatdown while pissed out his face in that hotel?
don is my hero

i think don frye was under rated, i mean yea he was never a title holder in ufc or pride, but i think he is def the toughest son of a bitch to ever fight..anyman who only ever bleeds from one spot in the middle of his head no matter who and how he fights is tough. Hes also a very funny guy….gotta love em…true legend

Hundreds? That might be a little too generous Jesse.
Just watched the video of him getting beat down. He was winning at first then some dude comes in holds his arm possibly his shirt as well, then the guy comes in and starts kicking his ass so……not fair to say the least.
Many people don’t know that Don Frye won UFC 8 David vs Goliath tournament which was a lot harder to win than a belt since he had to fight 3 times in one night. As a smaller fighter Don Frye set the fastest ko in UFC history(8 seconds)against a much heavier opponent, then ko’d his next opponent in 48 seconds. In the finals he submitted Gary Goodridge in a little over 2 minutes. That’s Mack Shyt fellas.
I think Frye is great, particularly his no-defense Pride match against Takayam - but this it the logic of a man who has taken one too many to the head.
man!!!Don is great!!!how can you not like him.
