I'd like to throw out a "hat-tip" to NMFBIHOP (a political blog) for writing about New Mexico Senator Shannon Robinson's involvement with UNM Rugby and his role as a legislator.
Back in 2006 I aired a report showing how Senator Robinson secured public funding for the New Mexico Sports Authority, which in turn, spent that money to put his rugby team on television.
Since the report aired, there have been several Albuquerque Journal articles about Robinson's dealings as a senator and as a rugby coach, and how the two roles seem to create a conflict of interest.
