Harsh. Brutal. Unnecessary. Worst of all, sacrilegious. You call yourself a Texan?? ;\)

While I've driven from SA to Dallas and vice versa for two-day trips, I'll agree that it would be better to fly from Dallas to SA if you want to see the Alamo and riverwalk for a day or two. Southwest Airlines has reasonable fees and plenty of flights from Love Field to SA International.

If the Alamo is definitely on your list, I can help you with other things to do in SA. If, however, you stay in the DFW area only, I'll defer to the folks up there for the best ideas.
