    Because the Administrators group is intended to function as a unit. Any time
    a member of the Admin group takes ownership of an object, the entire group
    has ownership, so that it may later be re-assigned by any Admin.

    If you want sole ownership, you have to temporarily remove yourself from the
    Admin group, take ownership, and then reinstate your membership to Admin
    group.
