I think we're discussing the actual rule here, not practical application. Camron's interp is that the ball is not live until the thrower has it. That's completely contrary to the rule.
Gasp. You'd grant a TO request to one team when the ball is at the disposal of the other team? ()

Btw, I certainly agree with your position on Cameron's interp. Pretty definitive language he's ignoring.
