Jack Clark on the steroid era

Not sure how many of you guys caught a recent article detailing an interview with Jack Clark, former Giants / Cardinals slugger. It was one of the most honest interviews I've ever seen, be it sports or non sports.
Clark ripped every major user...McGwire, Sosa, Bonds, Clemens, Palmiero, M. Ramirez, etc. Called them fakes, phonies, creeps and liars....all in a half page newspaper article. Said McGwire should be banned from baseball and said he would take his 340 lifetime homeruns over anybody who used steroids to help them hit more.
It was great to see a former player (and a damn good one) step forward and rip the entire era.
Hey Jack, if I ever meet you, the first round of beer is on me! You said what needed to be said.
