Mark, that ain't so. The word flagrant simply means he gets tossed. A flagrant technical means ejection and 2 shots, ball back at division line. A flagrant intentional means ejection, 2 or 3 shots, and ball back at point of foul.
Here's the problem - there's no such thing as a "flagrant intentional."

A foul must be, at the least, personal or technical.

On top of a personal or technical designation, you can add qualifiers such as "flagrant," "common," "intentional," "player-control," etc. (within limits, of course - obviously you can't have a common technical foul).

For a full explaination of all this, see thread 5469 - http://www.officialforum.com/showthr...?threadid=5469 - I think most everyone here has beaten this issue into the ground.
