Unless you live in the Boston area, you probably haven’t heard the recent drama between the Marblehead High School football coach (Doug Chernovetz) and one of his former players. I’ll get down to brass tacks here, and just sum it up with the kid sucked and wasn’t happy about his playing time, the coach wasn’t afraid to lay into the kid for being a pussy on the practice field, and in the bullshit world of Marblehead (or “The Island” as I refer to it) the kid’s father got the coach suspended because he used smokeless tobacco in front of his players.
Fast forward to today, and the coach was in court defending his ass for harassing, intimidating and making racial slurs towards players. Now at first, I thought this was just a case of some kid being a whiny bitch. That was until I was able to find a copy of this arrest warrant…
These officers then asked Coach King about an incident between King and the Canterbury Football Coach, Doug Chernovetz, after a party. These officers had learned during the investigation that Coach King and Mr. Chernovetz had kissed. Coach King stated that he recalled the incident we were talking about. Coach King stated that he had a party at his residence for other staff members at Canterbury School. Coach King stated that near the end of the evening, he and Mr. Chernovetz did kiss each other on the lips. Coach King stated that they had been drinking alcohol throughout the night and that he and Mr. Chernovetz have a mutual friendship and admiration for one another. Coach King stated that there was nothing sexual about his kissing Mr. Chernovetz or Bryan Bufkin. Coach King continued to deny having an ongoing sexual relationship with the Complainant. Coach King also denied having homosexual or bisexual tendencies. In conclusion to the interview these Officers then offered a polygraph test to Coach King concerning this investigation. Attorney DiAdamo stated that Coach King would not be taking a polygraph test based on Attorney DiAdamo’s personal beliefs and past experiences with lie detector tests.
You can take my word for it, or read that whole long ass document, but basically this isn’t the first time this guy has been in hot water with his players. What amazes me is how the press hasn’t picked up on this previous case. Then again, how the hell did the Marblehead Athletic Director and/or Superintendent not pick up on this before this guy was hired? I mean isn’t this sort of a red flag? Boozing in front of your players and making out with your mentor?
