A 49ers gay ad has been pulled after two team members deny participating in it. On Feb. 1, Yahoo! Sports reported that the 'It Gets Better' video that was made as part of an anti-bullying campaign is no longer online.
'Movement co-founder Dan Savage made the decision to pull the video after linebacker Ahmad Brooks and tackle Isaac Sopoaga strangely denied their involvement with 'It Gets Better' when asked about it by Kevin Manahan of USA Today on Thursday afternoon. After being shown the video, the players then claimed ignorance of the ad's intentions and refused comment,' Yahoo! Sports reported.
The 49ers gay ad marked the first time that an NFL team filmed such a spot. It is unknown why 'It Gets Better' decided to pull the video, which seemed like it would do more good than not, regardless of Brooks and Sopoaga's comments. Many are surprised that the guys were even asked about the ad, given the fact that they have to play football this weekend. That doesn't make what they said right -- or wrong.
Naturally, the timing of this story is suspicious, given the fact that the 49ers will play in Sunday's Super Bowl against the Baltimore Ravens.
The 49ers gay ad was 'designed to encourage hope and acceptance among gay teens who are being bullied.'.

San Francisco 49er Chris Culliver selfishly shot off his mouth yesterday, igniting a firestorm of controversy and creating a nightmare for his team and the National Football League as they head to the Super Bowl. For that alone the NFL should suspend him, his comments having put his entire team at the center of an unnecessary controversy as they're trying to focus on the game.
But for the horrendously bigoted, anti-gay content of his remarks, there is no question that Culliver must be suspended if the NFL is serious about its claims to be taking on homophobia in its ranks. Thanks to players like Minnesota Vikings punter Chris Kluwe and Baltimore Ravens linebacker Brendan Ayanbadejo and their pro-gay advocacy, we're seeing a shift among NFL players, but the leadership needs to take strong stand against Culliver's kind of bigotry if that shift is to continue.
'I don't do the gay guys, man,' Culliver told radio host Artie Lange. 'I don't do that. No.'
Asked whether there are any gay players on the 49ers, Culliver said, 'Nah. We don't got no gay people on the team. You know, they gotta get up out of here if they do. Can't be with that sweet stuff.'
Incredulous, Lange pointed out that gay players might be able to play well, too, but Culliver responded, 'Nah. Nah. Can't be... can't... uh... be in the locker room.'

A player for the Super Bowl-bound San Francisco 49ers gave a controversial, anti-gay interview just days ahead of the NFL's championship game.
Speaking with shock jock Artie Lange, cornerback Chris Culliver said he's not OK with gay players in the NFL or on his team.
'I don't do the gay guys man,' Culliver said, according to Yahoo. 'I don't do that. No, we don't got no gay people on the team, they gotta get up out of here if they do.'
Culliver went on to say that gays would not be welcomed in the locker room, but if they remained closeted, he might be all right with them playing.
'Yeah, come out 10 years later,' he said.
'How progressive!,' Deadspin's Tom Ley quipped, noting that the 'interview came to a hurried conclusion at that point.'
The question of whether or not gay players would be accepted in professional sports has been in the news lately, as some media professionals speculated whether or not Notre Dame player Manti Te'o's fake girlfriend was a cover for his sexuality.
Te'o has since turned down the gay rumors, but the scandal re-opened the conversation about sexual orientation in the National Football League.
Former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jerome Bettis said it's likely he played with gay players during his career, although none of them were fully

For those of you not familiar with Saint Patrick's Day, it's a cultural and religious holiday celebrated on the 17th of March in Dublin, Ireland. The tradition came about at the instigation of the Irish Protestant organization The Knights of St. Patrick. The inaugural parade took place on March 17, 1783. In what has been described as an act of cultural re-orientation the British established a new focus of ritual and spectacle in the figure of St. Patrick, a pre-reformation saint who appealed to both the Roman Catholic and Irish Protestant traditions in Ireland. Guarding the inaugural procession were the mainly Protestant Volunteers who were charged with keeping order on the streets and at the service in the Protestant St. Patrick's Cathedral. The subsequent celebrations took place in two venues: on March 17 in the ballroom (which the Lord Lieutenant Earl Temple II h

Juro Gey to Jano Gey Video: Atif Aslam
Apney Dil Ki Jo Suni, Ik Raah Yun Chuni
Aur Phir Nikal Pare, Ho Kay Mast Chal Pare
Mushkilein Tou Ayeingi, Museebatein Darayengi
Zid Pe Tum Are Raho, Jazbay se Jure Raho
Jab Tum Yeh Mano Gey, Juro Gey To Jano Gey
Jab Tum Yeh Mano Gey, Juro Gey To Jano Gey
Hasay Koi Hasa Kare, Mana Kare Kia Kare
Rukawaton Ko Tor Key, Khuwab Peechay Chor Ke
Jo Aag Se Guzer Sako, Tu Kia Hai Jo Na Kar Sako
Jazbay Se Jo Than Lo, Jurey Raho Aur Jaan Lo
Jab Tum Yeh Mano Gey, Juro Gey To Jano Gey
Jab Tum Yeh Mano Gey, Juro Gey To Jano Gey
Jazba Tumhein Jeetaye Ga, Raasta Dekhaye Ga
Jo bhi Chaho Pao Gey, Taarey Tor Lao Gey
Gunn Tumhare Gaaye Gi
Duniya!!!
Maan, Maan, Maan Jaye Gi
Jab Tum Yeh Mano Gey, Juro Gey To Jano Gey
Jab Tum Yeh Mano Gey, Juro Gey To Jano Gey
Jab Tum Yeh Mano Gey, Juro Gey To Jano Gey
Jab Tum Yeh Mano Gey, Juro Gey To Jano Gey
