Sure they are. Somebody will be prying this team out of Angelos' cold, dead hands, but only after someone stakes him through the heart, shoves a bulb of garlic in his mouth, and sprinkles his coffin with Holy Water, because as of right now his cold, dead hands are perfectly functional.

Besides, a community based ownership group? Sure, MLB would go for that. And again, even if this isn't an April Fool's joke, only Nestor Aparicio would be deluded enough to think he had any kind of pull or influence enough to be involved in something like this.
