Giving Back
The Xpress spent Saturday morning giving back to the community, donating Thanksgiving Turkeys to families in need in the South Dallas area. Coach Vernon asked his players to help out those in need by donating turkey's, their time, and little effort on Saturday morning by choosing house's at random and donating turkey's to families. The people of the South Dallas community was very appreciative and excepted all 15 Turkeys that the Xpress had to offer. The Xpress would like to Thank Sam Crawford, Anthony Stevenson, James Roberts, Asst Head Coach Juan Valles and Ms. Rayford in their Participation in donating these Turkeys. The Xpress will be donating more Turkey's for Christmas, in it's continued efforts in giving back to the community and to continue to help those in need.

A Man Of Your Word
In Life and in society a man truly has one thing that he should always live by and that's being a man of his word. In other words, when you tell some one you are going to do something you should do that, because at the end of the day a man is only as good as his word. To you guys that play football for the Xpress you have let the organization know that you will be at practice on time and ready to get to work, but you either do not attend or are you are late, bottom line is the team will only go as far as the team will allow it to go. Their are owners that word does not mean SHIT and if you are that owner then I am quite sure your players are the same way, because why would a player want to play for someone whose word has no value? I am not sure, but the Xpress organization stands by what we believe in. These other teams have unprofessional owners that do no not know what it takes to win, are when they do win it's against a lesser opponent, or they cheat by adding players to their rosters throughout the whole season. These same teams charge 250.00 or 300.00 to play football, promise you all these things and simply take your money, have a losing record each year and give the players Pop Warner looking uniforms. The Dfw Xpress will give you what they say they will, charge you less then half of the other team fees, and you will get a nice looking uniform and also you will finish with a winning record. The Xpress are 26-14 over the past 3 years. So you as a player before you sign on to play for another team ask your coach are owner does the team play in the NMLF and are you a man of your word if the answer is no to any one of these question then contact the NMLF and find a team near you.
