Somebody failed logic it seems. I read the post -- saying an intentional foul may or may not be premeditated doesn't mean that something premeditated is an intentional foul.

All fouls are either premeditated or not premeditated -- neither case necessarily implies anything. However your post does say that it must be a foul away from the ball or a foul that causes excessive contact. I can yell FOUL FOUL FOUL all I want, but if the player makes a legitimate play on the ball, it is not an intentional foul. To call so would be over-officious and would be inserting your own beliefs into the game rather than calling the game by the spirit of the intentional foul rule.
