There's a difference between wanting equal revenue sharing, and realizing that Texas won't allow equal revenue sharing in the current Big 12 structure and looking to get an equal cut of the pie of one your main rivals.
?!?!?
A&M was fine with unequal revenue sharing the entire history of this conference and last summer when they (supposedly) could have gone to the SEC (with their equal revenue sharing) they chose to stay in the Big 12 with a really sweet (for A&M) unequal revenue sharing structure.
BG, once again, you are impervious to facts.

The SEC was going to be a bigger payout for A&M and an equal footing.
When Beebe promised $20 million Beebe bucks (actually more than what the SEC pays out currently), it would have been foolish not to take it.
The point A&M is making is they know the conference is doomed NOW because of unequal revenue sharing and the fact that TV contracts are being re-upped incredulously across the board.
You are ignoring the peripheral circumstances as to why unequal revenue sharing is unacceptable now.
I agree that a quick glance could support your argument, but if you think A&M all of the sudden addressed this issue last year (or Texas or OU or anyone in the Big 12), you'd be wrong. Its always addressed at the AD meetings on a yearly basis.
