That was more obvious than the call they came up with.

for discussion & AS USUAL, when you dont agree you change words around &/or focus on terminology to get your point across.

Time and score does not matter with me. Just like the kind of path a player has does not matter with me either.

How did I change the words around? I stated very clearly why I felt it was not an intentional foul, you are the only one that has stuck to a standard that is not stated in any rules at the NCAA or NF level with your "clear path" standard. It was not obvious to me that this was anything other than many other fouls we would call in a game.

It is? Where does it say that in the rulebook? I have seen intentional fouls called by many officials in the first few minutes of the game on plays like this where a player as a easy layup or dunk. The action is what makes it an intentional foul, not the time in the game if you are using the rules about this kind of foul.
