BIRDSEED:

• Says the reason why he first started playing football was because of his mother, Florence. "My first love was baseball," said Clark. "But, my mom absolutely loves football. So, one day when I was about ten years old, she came home from work with some pads and said, 'let's go.' I've been playing ever since."
• Claims the biggest thing he had to adjust to in Philadelphia is "the fast-paced lifestyle." Said Clark: "Back where I grew up, it was the complete opposite of city life. There was lots of peace and quiet, not a lot of hustle-and-bustle. Here, everybody always seems to be in a rush. I'm getting used to it though, it's growing on me."
