About

Tommy Lawlor isn’t from Philly, but is an Eagles fan anyway, proving that he was dropped on his head too much as a kid. Actually, Dr. J is the culprit for bringing him to Philly sports, all the way back in 1977. Tommy began following the Eagles during the glory days of Reggie White and Buddy Ryan. The glory, of course, meant fun regular seasons followed by playoff frustration.

That all changed when Andy Reid came to town and brought championship game frustration. That’s at least progress, right? Tommy began writing about the team in 2003 (hat tip to the internet and Al Gore). He’s avidly followed the NFL Draft going back to the late 80’s and in the late 90’s was trained by a former NFL scout in the art of player evaluation and scouting.

He began the website scoutsnotebook.com in 2005 and wrote a weekly column for philadelphiaeagles.com from 2017 until 2019. He also wrote about the Eagles at EaglesBlitz and IgglesBlog, thus the name of the current site. You can follow Tommy on Twitter / X at @lawlornfl.
