Tom -- pretty good, but you need to use a little bit of formatting to really add punch:
If the intent was to hit
The player must sit!!
See how classy that looks?
Everyone else, Yea, by rule, it was flagrant. I posted this, knowing that I'd hear the range of opinions. I still think I should have gone with intentional. If I'd have thought of it, that's what I'd have done. And I really can't justify it -- except that the situation didn't escalate, even though it could have. The coach dealt with it, and that was the end. I know on paper that doesn't add up to a good enough reason, and I'm not a "trust your instinct" kinda gal. I don't understand my own reaction here, I just posted to sort of see what the reasons were. And I appreciate the different responses.
