"The world of sports is full of clowns.

Agent Al Irby just moved up on the list.

Irby, who represents former Jaguars quarterback David Garrard, claims the organization cut his client because it knew about a herniated-disk injury and withheld that knowledge. Garrard is planning on having surgery to correct the issue.

Here's an excerpt of Irby's email to Times-Union reporter Tania Ganguli.

"At $500,000 per game, they knew he would be down 4-6 weeks. They didn't want to pay that bill. Now you know the difference between a first-class organization like Indy, and a sorry organization like the Jags. Indy gave their QB a contract even though he couldn't play all season. … David was told his back was fine. So he took them for their word."
