I don't think he "plays the race card" as much as he points out how issues of race are often percieved by the public, particularly the black community. e.g. his recent column about Shanahan benching McNabb, he said he doesn't think Shanny was racist, just that there is a history of mistrust between older black DC residents & the Skins due to the latter's slow integration.
