The team
pulled out new Capital Punishment
jerseys for the spring of 2002 along
with new players and more talent.
Capital
Punishment was on the verge of becoming
one of the most organized inline hockey
teams in the Chicago area, with teams
playing in several different leagues
(Mount Prospect, Sportplex in St.
Charles, The Dome and Hat Trick). With
so many teams Martinez became obsessed,
he wanted to once raise a Championship
trophy.
With little success at the Hat Trick
Hockey League due to Dan Focker the
commissioner at the time who frequently
sexually harassed players and fans (all
male), Martinez decide to consolidate
the teams and focus playing at the Dome
Hockey League in Elgin, thus changing
the name of the team to the Chicago
Bulldogs. Martinez also let several
players go including Marty Gangler,
Steve Rhodes, Mike Campioni and Tom
Annarella who were all as*holes and
cancers of the team.
The name
Bulldogs originated from one of the
original Blue Mother Pucker players who
stuck with the team named Kurt Swanson.
Kurt, who was high on life and other
things, had a Bulldog name Butch and
Martinez loved the idea, since he was a
Long Beach Ice Dogs fan.
Styling new
players, new jerseys and name the
Bulldogs embarked at the Dome Hockey
League and became a small empire having
three different teams in three different
divisions.
In the
spring of 2003 the Chicago Bulldogs
Inline Hockey team won its first
Championship by defeating the Armored
Saints in triple overtime. At last
Martinez once again raised a
Championship trophy.
After heated issues with the Dome Hockey
League and several failure attempts with
Pro Leagues (PIHA, IHA and MLRH, all are
a bunch of as*holes) Martinez decided to
get out while the team was on top. The
inline hockey franchise was sold to
several players who could ill afford to
make payments to the league, thus the
team was place on hiatus.
