My feeling is a video like this was ment to have a like effect. If you want to keep a bunch of young, egocentric, wealthy, and not all that well educated mens attention on what is basicly a training video, I can't think of a better way to do it than making one like they did.

This is a good point. But it's a bit hard for me to get a real sense of it without seeing the actual video. Maybe a spin on Kazaa....The article doesn't really say what context the scenes that were described were in.
The 49niners said that the video was,
"
We share their view that the video was inappropriate, offensive in every respect, and of no value whatsoever," the league said. "It does not reflect the 49ers' values and traditions or those of the league and its member clubs."
Your army example is clear to me, the video in question here is not so clear to me. For example, did the trainer say, "the following are examples of unacceptable behavior" or what?
