It always just bugged me how they sensationalized the whole bullying thing. I don't think I ever saw "jocks" ever bother the Glee club, or any other nerd club, at my school. They were pretty much just ignored. Any antagonism was generally at the individual level and not particularly dramatically compelling. Using cliched tropes about jock vs nerd wars is just kind of lame.
