Each actor has his merits, but Christopher Reeve is the GOAT. His ability to transform a 6'4 225 alpha into a clumsy, fearful doofus — and then instantly switch into an immortal superhero — is a masterclass in acting.
This scene was deleted, but it's a perfect illustration.
So awesome! Thank you

This afternoon Coach made a special presentation to Johnston-McQueen Elementary teachers Mrs. Melanie Martin and Mrs. Rhonda Small...
All of Lobo Nation is thinking of senior Drake Mayfield this morning... Hoping for a smooth, successful surgery and a speedy recovery/rehab, young man!

and

for Drake! 👍💚🐺
Here's a great moment from last night:
@CoachJohnKing
took a few minutes pre-game to visit with the

elementary student who dressed up as him for Halloween.
There's so much more to being the AD/HC than just wins and championships.

A memorial celebration for Mr. James Brewer has been set for 12 p.m. Thursday, July 20th at Lobo Coliseum.
Funeral services are being conducted by Sid Roberts Funeral Home of Nacogdoches.
Was sorting some old multimedia folders and accidentally opened this file... my office was suddenly filled with a train horn, a wolf howl, and thousands upon thousands of Lobo faithful.
Still get goosebumps thinking of that game. Absolutely amazing.

A gutsy bunch of kids who finished the regular season a shade above .500 are now headed to the Texas Class 5A Regionals.
How can you not be romantic about baseball?
For the first time since 1954, the Lobos have won two rounds in the UIL baseball playoffs.
It’s an area round victory for the first time in program HISTORY!
Way to go LOBOS!!!!!
22 straight years of playoff contention. To do this on any level is noteworthy, but to accomplish it over two decades against 5A-6A

competition in East Texas is pretty remarkable.

How rad is it that Longview Lobo athletics is partnering with *two* NFL players to provide FREE football camps for local kiddos this Summer?
#LoboFamily
🏈 On this day five years ago, Longview defeated Lufkin 33-32 in the Class 6A state quarterfinals, featuring one of the greatest TD catches I've ever seen on the high school level.

We are all witnesses.
"Taylor Tatum is having a huge season scoring in 2022. His 13 touchdowns through 5 games is one shy of the Lobo record held by Earnest Hunter set in 1989."
BREAKING: According to a TEA report released this morning,
@LongviewISD
is an "A" district based on 2021-22 STAAR testing!
Every LISD campus received at least a "B." Every. Single. One.
@KSPrior
My pastor isn't even on Twitter, and he's barely on Facebook (mostly kid photos that his wife tags him in).
He's far too busy visiting nursing homes, leading community outreach, and preparing his sermons to have time for social media.
What a nerd.

BREAKING NEWS: Sources* are reporting that Arch Manning has opened talks with the New Orleans Saints to skip college altogether and declare for the NFL.
Source: Just trust me bro.
Fun fact to wake up to….
After last night’s 70-0 win, the Lobos have now scored 70 or more in a single game 7 times in program history.
3 have come under head

Dabo Swinney on Georgia Tech QB Haynes King: "If you give him open space it's not 5 yards, it's 10, 15 yards ... He can hurt you." King is averaging 7.2 ypc this season and is top 10 nationally in total offense (319.4 ypg)
Longview ISD's new Lobo bus made its debut at the administration building this afternoon, ready to transport students to extracurricular events and competitions. Kudos to the district Transportation staff for providing this stylish ride!
#LoboUp
❔ Will Haynes King shock the college football world:
Perhaps... but I can guarantee you no one in Longview will be shocked. We're already believers.

I'm seeing him attend different OU events, supporting different sports. Taking selfies with fans and supporters.
He's a program guy. That's what we've needed.

Thanksgiving break. Jogging laps. Running bleachers. Thought I'd catch morning practice and see how the Lobos are looking.
But due to inclement weather conditions, they had to practice at another district's indoor facility.
⚽️ Everyone knows about Lobo football, but don't sleep on Lobo fútbol. Boys and girls teams are absolutely killing it this season.

Keen insight. There's an overt hostility toward entitlement that's aligned from top down. Behaving like something is *owed* will get you an *** chewing.
There's a stoic undercurrent that spans young and old: that it's Lobos vs. Everybody, and everything *must* be earned.
Longview is a fan base that I find gets it. They have a lot of humility - obviously Lobo and East Texas pride is through the roof, but they don't have this blanket sense of entitlement that they should be there in any given year, but they are always proud of their team..
I am so dadgum proud of these kids!
@BaseballLobo
had such a thrilling playoff run! Shocked some folks. Played some great baseball. Thank you Lobo student-athletes, coaches, volunteers, and families!
HUGE thanks to
