"I've always had the philosophy that a ballpark belongs to the community, not to the owner or set of owners. I think the community wants the team to be run in a way that if they were in charge, how would they want it to be run?" Magowan said. "They want to see a good product on the field and they want to have a good environment at the ballpark where everything works -- clean ballpark, courteous employees, good food, take care of children, all of these things. And they want the team to behave in a way they would be proud of."While the Giants haven't had a very good product on the field in recent years, their park isn't really the community's, either. It's the first park since Dodger Stadium in 1962 to be built without public funds. That's quiet a feat, considering the Twins new park is getting built with 2/3 public funding. No wonder that thing took so long to get done.
