Double or nothing
 
The double or nothing wager stems from my True or False thread. An inbounding player can hand the ball to a teammate without throwing it. True or False?

False.

Are you betting your inexperienced mentee? :D

It's Called a THROW In, not a Hand In

9-2 . . . 4-31

Enjoy your Fresca, if you're the winner, which I hope the heck you are.

No a non official. :D

I tried to explain it's called a throw-in.

Not enough information to answer.

If it's a "run the endline" throw-in, and the teammate is out-of-bounds along the endline, then it's legal.

Further, you ask only whether the ball CAN be handed to another teammate (I assume you mean one who is also a player), not whether it's legal. ;)

Thrower-in-er A1, who is out of bounds with the ball, holds the ball across the boundary line plane at which point defender B1 grabs the ball out of A1's hands and dribbles away. Legal?

Good point -- and I edited my post.

You would be surprised at what I'm capable of doing now that they're new sheriffs in town who, collectively, won't allow me to to post off topic posts, images, or videos. I feel like I'm being watched all the time. I understand that the new moderators have been given access to a couple of black helicopters.

Then it's working. My helicopter's in the shop, though.
