Case 3.1 The Trolley Dodger and newspaper articles on the 2011 payroll embezzlement at the San Francisco Giants.

1. Compare and contrast these two scandals that occurred 25 years apart, i.e., what's the same and what was different. For example, they both occurred in California.

2. Would these scandals have occurred if the baseball teams were public companies? Why? 1986 vs. post-2002.

3. Would these scandals have occurred if the payroll function were outsourced to ADP or another company?
