I'm a Mormon - Gabe Reid - Former NFL Player

[CRL73hippo]

A "dislike" vote for this video, or any other video in the Mormon series is, in my opinion, a good thing. Why? It is just like what Brigham Young said when early Latter-day Saints expressed fears over the building of the Salt Lake Temple.

“For we never began to build a temple without the bells of hell beginning to ring. I want to hear them ring again!”

The "dislikes" and negative comments tell me this video series is a good thing. Anything which offends the adversary is a good thing.

[ixlnxs]

I'm a non mormon and I love Salt Lake, where most people are nonmo, exmo or even nevermo, but the rest of Utah can be annoying when the mormons get all over you.

[anythingnew]

What does this have to do with Mormonism?

[Russelltheloner]

I don't understand people's arrogance.... perhaps one day they too will be Mormons. Go missionaries!

[SamoanGurlToops]

If you have nothing good to say don't comment I'm Mormon and im proud!! And all this video is trying to tell you rude people is that Mormons are like any other people, and we're normal, and we don't have "restrictions" we love being who we are, and of your gonna judge us by our religion then that's your loss. But nothing your commenting on this video that's rude isent making you a bigger person. You don't see Mormons judging you for your religion so Stop hating & if you don't like it don't wat

[TehStalkerPro]

I'm sick of this being in my related videos...

[kawa1spaz]

Why you gotta advertise your religion?

[sssmalt]

So where did you come from? who are you? why are you be in here? where are you gonna be taken to? Do you have the answers ?? Mormons?

[rshistorical]

And, I'm a Christian.

[29iceskater]

the story was great until he started talking about mormon

[mSsamoanflower]

HEY BROTHER REID!!!! YOU ROCK! MISS YOUR WIFE AND CHILDREN!

your story will always remind me of elma! (my brother-elder key)

[libertyslegion]

I'm not a Mormon but I live in Salt Lake City. After seeing all the dislikes on this video it is no wonder Mormons feel persecuted. I don't understand why people have such strong dislike of something they don't understand. Mormons are good people doing their best; they are humans just like you. Is there religion true -- maybe not -- but is yours -- maybe not -- there are many spiritual paths.

[BeInnocuous]

@libertyslegion

I feel the same... I'm not sure who started the campaign to dislike these vids but it is kind of disturbing.

[selpaCeolhC]

Okay STOP WITH THE HATE I'm a Mormon and I am proud... SO STOP THE HATE

[plankers100]

can everyone just keep their NEGATIVE comments TO THEIR SELVES???

[executioneer7676]

@plankers100 can everyone just keep their RELIGIOUS beliefs TO THEIR SELVES???

[BowmanTV]

i like how the mormon religion is old enough for my dad to look back and say, "oh yeah, thats not true." - Daniel Tosh

[Sathrik]

I am shocked at the hate. Its just not right.. and YOU all know it.

[pistonsfan1991]

My name is Ryan and i am not a mormon i played parks and wreck basketball player in the championship game i turned the ball over

[RebeccaPierri]

and here i am on the weird side of youtube ugh

[bettythorny]

I really don't care but thanks for sharing anyways.

[mannysaurus19]

This video is overtly trying to get people to sign up for the mormon church. This video is a disgrace; it's simply religious propaganda which is why it gets a big fat thumbs down from me. DISLIKE!

[theBEATdude]

I honestly, seriously, don't care.

[ScottyDuzntKno]

Im agnostic and I dont find anything wrong with this video...dont understand all the hate

[JAYcovey706]

why all the hate? He sounds like a stand op guy.

[curlybassplyr]

Wait, so there isn't anything funny about this? This is it? Oh....

[andrewmotisi8]

Repent and dismiss pagan religions that make you feel secure and ones that assume an intermingling with the secular world is possible.

[modnar450]

Finally after all these years I understand why I'm not a pro athlete!

cool story bro :3

Hi, I'm Jomm

I am a husband, a father, a former conductor of the philharmonic orchestra, and I'm not a Mormon.

True story ;)

[LjRoc23]

Thought he was gonna say something good about being Mormon, or why he is, or what it means.

[CheeseyPotato40]

My name is Claire and I am Not a Morman, I am a Christan

[zujo92]

and the YouTube community cares why..?

[gpac777]

@zujo92 I care.

[plankers100]

@zujo92 I didnt see a sign where it said you HAVE TO WATCH THIS.

[tvol131]

I am a middle school student and don't so much except play video games. and I'm a presbyterian.

[marcusBX]

The video should have been 0:07 then 2:15

[probrojeffro]

I clicked this video just to give my daily thumbs up. I do it for all these videos.

[ThebossaruChamp]

"This is my only chance at having a football player."

So, in Mormon girls can't play football? Oh wait. That is America in general... my bad.

[NoRestForTheWeary]

@ThebossaruChamp Uh, for your information, girls CAN play football in America. It's called The Lingerie Football League.

[MarioYoBro]

If you cut out the last 10 seconds of this video, it would be 100x better..

[luvdgrey]

Jim McMahon was a Catholic.

[prismflash]

I used to be a mormon like you, but i took an arrow to the knee

[bankshot1998]

All the haters who have put comments satan has got into you without u even knowing

[MadeInChina81]

I was watching beauty gurus, why was this a sponsored video under their videos? *Shrugs*.

[1000Gunray]

8,657 people aren't mormon.

[ShockRawTecTalk]

@1000Gunray more than that

[pretzelproductions10]

@1000Gunray You dont say

[Mrmichaelismyname]

@1000Gunray thank God for those people

[EHIV]

Hey, a Samoan.

Head & Shoulders and now this.

We're finally moving up in the world.

[SuperDerezzed]

After watching many of these videos I realize what they are about. They are not to say "mormons are normal" as a lot of people have suggested in the comments. The message is to know who you are and be at peace with that, and it's okay to share who you are with others. You never know who you'll connect with and what you can learn about others, and who will inspire you if you don't take the risk of sharing who you are with others.

[CaptainRidley]

LOL @ all the haters on here. This is the most unthreatning video on Youtube and people are freaking out. About what? Mormons? Football? A happy family? Grow up people. Don't like the video(can't see why not it's a great video) then just don't watch it.

[wackywierddudes]

why does a religion need a commercial?

[MrConversionVans]

If there is one thing Mormons love to do it's play up the Osmonds and the Sports Heros. If only they were all Osmonds and Sports Hero's.

[BomWarrior]

Um, why the hate? These 'commercials' are just showing "Mormons are people too!"

[CenkIsAdorable]

@BomWarrior Of course mormans are people. What self esteem does this religion have if they think people think that?

[xD3REKx]

You guys really need to ease up. The video is just to show that mormons are regular everyday people.

[Gzero91]

Release episode 33

[BODMONBASSTINGZ]

WE DONT CARE MORMONS STOP MAKING THESE VIDEOS

[carlmor85]

I really liked this video. It was sincere. And he seems like a guy that would be a good neighbor. Good job.

[AndrewAjarama]

Hi, I think you should stop posting religious videos on YouTube!

[samoanpride562]

IM A CHRISTIAN!!!!!!

[AkaAnimeClub]

I just clicked on this video to leave my daily thumbs down rating...I do it as soon as I see videos by this channel.

[timelessnugget]

NOTHING HAPPENS WHEN YOU DIE.

[MakeMeRedial]

I Clicked on this video to troll. Everyone beat me to it.

[AF9ner]

Frankly guys, I'm a mormon, and these videos piss me off.

[duckyurrlyquitelucky]

I thought Mormons couldn't play sports on Sundays... how did you play FOOTBALL?

[lmaso99xx]

Hi, my name is Lake and I'm an atheist.

[SkinoGreeneVu]

[S0m3ThlnG]

please let this become a meme

[hampstershat123]

What does being a mormon have to do with any of this? Seems like HE changed his own life and made it better, not some religion.

[Chise37]

Oh, your little girls can't play football? Of course you're sexist. Mormon.

[aMARIKanIshtar]

So... The only time he mentioned being a Mormon was at the very end. This video is pointless. Baptist by the way.

[ilovefrisco523]

Milou was born while playing for BYU...? Ruh Roh

[transamman69]

I thought this was going to be a comedy related video when I saw the thumbnail.

[DaBirdSmasha]

I'm living.

[FcSteezey]

Cool story bro.

[cc1903]

I hear about doing a lot of great things in the video, and I hear a lot about Mormonism in the description. But I don't hear a word about our lord Jesus Christ. That's who its all about. We don't need a religion to have true joy in life and to be found. We need to a relationship with Christ. We need to get to know God. It's about relationship, not religion.

[haircutbob2]

Okaaaayyyyy... So how is any of this relevant to the title?

[DJMordum]

I clicked on this video just to dislike it. Pff. Mormons.

[James3Pharrell]

@DJMordum me too! And everyone else.

[Shamkawow]

@DJMordum Wow so your prejudiced.Ok so what have you achieved in your life

[zakkbeckettt]

@DJMordum don't hate

[BomWarrior]

@DJMordum Wow, real mature. Should I click on any videos you make 'just to dislike' them? Or should I see what you've 'liked', subscribed to, and/or watch your future videos and say "Hey, this guy has an alright taste in music"?

[ToastMasterGuy]

cool story bro

[94tehseen]

oh no way he fumbled. Now i have to become a MORMON (sarcastic)

[BomWarrior]

@94tehseen Oh no! He's HUMAN! He's just like you! ... Just has some different morals. If you can't see the purpose behind a kind ad, stop watching and go watch Hulu. Oh wait, someone on there might be mormon too.... Too many humans that might be mormon! Ack! (sarcastic) ;]

[Itsover90]

You are advertising Mormons as if they are the only ones that can do this.

[marco81709]

Hi, I am an atheist

[sneakywalrusxXx]

Leonardo da vinci, formed the idea of flying, submarines, one of the best artists, inventor, etc. He was a christian. Just because some guy is a marine or football player or whatever doesn't mean you just say I'M A MORMON!!!!!! I'm a christian, am I making videos about it? no. YouTube if for laughter, not religion.

[benyoung2575j]

@sneakywalrusxXx if YouTube isn't for any serious matters than why is there videos of our history there? why is there a video of the twin towers? Why is there a video of our amazing military serving? And why is there videos for other religions?

Am I just being subjective or are these matters not important to any others. BTW i am a Mormon.

[Malakaiea]

So if your any other religion you cant do any of this??

[jwestlu1]

@Malakaiea That is the point of the video. Duh. People who are LDS are regular people.

[cartens33]

@Malakaiea No, I think it's just trying to show that Mormons can do normal things. Everyone knows Catholics and Jews and atheists can. Now we know mormons can, I guess.

[CuteBlueCherri]

Geez, what did Mormons ever do to 8,441 people??? I mean, come on.

[VictoryGold24]

He is such a nice guy! I met him at the Chicago Bears training camp!

why was this the top vid?

I don't care if you're a damn Mormon, stop making it an issue...thanks for Utah though, its beautiful.

[ComedyThatSucks]

woah nice red light saber, oh wait thats the dislike bar. and its unfortuntly that i actually live in utah atm.

[Desertback]

The fact is Mormons are not normal because if that is true they wouldn't have to post videos about it. Don't vote a Mormon President in because our country will become like Utah.......

[danielistic49]

Mormons are awesome people =) I'm a catholic and I have a friend who's a mormon and she is soo kind ^-^ Respect other Religions, don't bash them =)

[Oldcartoons571]

@danielistic49 Sorry religion doesnt deserve respect.

[TheBostonCeltic]

HAD A KID AT BYU!? Didn't that basketball player get in trouble for that kind of stuff.

[ChrisC30]

This commercial only holds relevance if he isn't a 'former' NFL player. >.> He's a has-been now.

[tneC0mment0r]

the 8,346 people who disliked this video are probably angry pastors or "priests" from other religions who are complaining their members are converting to the LDS faith, or stupid people who can't think about living life morally straight. haha, seriously, you can find more truths in the KJ Version bible's headings than in the all other faiths! LDS people are smart! :D

does it matter if he is mormon or not? these people really take pride in their religion.

[GGBK28]

LOL

[saiyanmanfour20]

I think Rebecca Black's "Friday" had a higher "like-to-dislike ratio" (favoring the "likes," of course)

[iSoaren]

SO, NOT BEING A QUITTER AND RAISING KIDS AND PLAYING IN THE NFL HAS WHAT TO DO WITH BEING MORMON AGAIN?

[Strongbid]

Is this a an ad promoting the mormon church, or the NFL ? It seems kind of weird that all these ads come out as a mormon is running for president. just saying

[abbed8]

why do you need religon in order to be happy?

I can see if you don't believe in the religion but why do so many people hate it? like really i know a lot of Mormons and the have high standards and are very good people i think you all want a reason to complain

[timblegoorn]

Do you really think the Mormon religion is the right way? Seriously, don't believe it. Just think, Joseph Smith, was talked to by an angel right? And was told that all religions are wrong right? Well if you read the true Bible, it says you shall never, ever, listen to anyone else even if it's an angel! Do you guys ever read the Bible? Or just your Mormon book which is wrong! I hope this doesn't sound bad but I'm telling you the truth! Please listen to me, read the Bible, It's the true way ;)

[xxaimpiratexx]

I've got a broadway musical for you to see buddy...

[21scuderia]

HERETICS are not in union with Christ

[FinalStarmanDX]

And I respect that, but do we really need a campaign to show Mormons are normal people? I'm well acquainted with how much the writers for South Park make fun of Mormons, and I laugh, but still, every day I go to school where some of my best friends are Mormons, and I accept them for who they are. It is not necessary to go through this much trouble when, every religion, belief, philosophy, and idea gets bashed by somebody. It takes the best of us to suck it up and continue on despite this.

[BioticBeach]

So... What did -that- have to do with being a mormon? I'm confused. I seriously doubt anyone in these videos take being a mormon seriously. It's like the casual Christians and catholic people. They say they're that because they have the basic set of ideals and were probably raised on them. They ignore 95% of the details (Except for God hating gays.. They -NEVER- miss that one for some reason.) And get paid to do these happy videos. They do not make me want to be a mormon, or set my ideals.

[electricviolinist9]

@BioticBeach They don't get paid to do these videos, they volunteer. They want to spread what they believe in because it makes them happy and that their religion helps them set goals. I don't see how this is a bad thing.

[CdLcrezic]

...And I'm your father.

[TuxTurner]

The mormons never answer me when I write to them on mormon chat.

[420JustLegalizeIt]

...And I'm an athiest.

[Skoomie]

This video has nothing to do with being a mormon..... sounds like a video about the life of a retired football star..... am I wrong????

[Manjot609]

And I'm not caring.

[ishafoxyfox]

Who the hell cares.

[MrFACKyouDUDE]

yea dude i don't know how you did it to raise a family with so much money... luckily my broke christian parents from mexico know how to work hard and manage their money..

[Arkturasbalboa]

Hmm, I never had a problem with Mormons until I got spammed by these stupid videos, anyone who has to justify their religion through YouTube videos has nothing but my contempt.

[Jelyjiggler]

Its annoying to see these videos you dont see ...and im a jew videos spamed all over. It shouldnt even matter what religion you are so this entire campaign is stupid

[brandonS911]

Lol the dislikes... :P

[soPhuzy]

I hate all of you
