I don't understand how a ball can be in and out at the same time. But it is late.

It can't be. It's either in or out.

For the sake of this discussion I will use the word "line" to refer to the inside edge of the boundary that separates inbounds and OOB in this paragraph. When you're in bounds and step one the line, TWEET!, you're out of bounds. When you're out of bounds and step on the lline or bounce the ball on the line, you're inbounds.

Perhaps the confusion is that you're thinking of the two inch line. Yes, you can step on the two inch line and you're still OOB. But if you touch the inside edge, you're gonna touch inbounds.
Tony,
I know your are talking about the IB/OOB line.
If the ball is touching both sides it is OOB.
This isn't tennis or baseball.
