conduct. It may or may not be intentional. If personal, it involves, but is not

involves dead-ball contact or noncontact at any time which is extreme or
persistent, vulgar or abusive conduct. Fighting is a flagrant act.

That was his point. He'd probably lean flagrant, but it at least meets the definition of excessive to be called an intentional foul.
But thanks for the copy/paste.
