Newbie, essentially. Check out the glossary:

Newbie must be a recent new use as here is it is according to the glossary.
Quote
Clark: 1) (also Clarkish, Clarkworthy, Dave, etc.) descriptive, sarcastic term coined by TZ legend Andyzipp in a now-famous take which serves to strongly emphasize any extraordinary, fantastic or above average feat. (ex. "Biggio stealing third in that situation was absolutely Clark.") Sarcastic reference is to the horrible 1998 performance of ex-Astros OF/PH Dave Clark.
Looks like we need a new entry for the glossary. I know I alwas thought it was for a newbie.

Post by: Ankh on January 31, 2008, 07:27:58 am: The title of "clark" for newbies has always been used by OWA since the transition from astrosconnection.com. It was an inside joke based on Zipper's infamous clark rant.

Unfortunately, our latest and greatest software doesn't allow custom titles. You'd think with all the geekery around here we could make that happen, but noooooooooo.

Not really, but halfway through one of them, say this one, it'll seem like 600.
