Not to burst your bubble but unsportsmanlike fouls in NF and NCAA rules (usually American rules across the board) are considered non-contact fouls. It would be "inconsistent with the rules" (I figured someone would like this) to call something a foul based on contact when all other "unsportsmanlike fouls" do not involve any contact. Using that terminology would be inconsistent with what the NF does in multiple sports (and all the committee chairs do discuss similar rules and terminology on some level) to call a foul with contact unsportsmanlike.

Peace
