I hope this counts as positive news. +1 for the kids who get bullied.

Union High School coach Matt Labrum did something not many coaches would do. Suspend every single one of his players.
Labrum told the team they would all be missing time after Union’s loss last Friday, saying the players needed to “earn back” the privilege of playing football at the school through community service and better behavior off the field.
Instead of practicing this week for Friday’s game, the players practiced what it meant to give back, by performing community service. The team spent the rest of last week doing the same just to earn their uniforms back.
“I think we deserved every little bit we got,” said one player of the coach’s extreme measures.
