re: Here is Hurt's Intentional Grounding

Based on the very definition of he rule this is pretty clear definition of intenational grounding

Exact opposite, actually

The tackle clearly lined up inside the upright

The tackle box is in effect until the ball leaves it. When Hurt released the ball, the view of his hand is blocked by the upright, which means the ball was outside the tackle box when he released it

Also, using your logic, every ball intentionally thrown out of bounds would be intentional grounding. Since there is no way a WR could possibly be in that area
