Another intentional foul question

[firedoc]

I think that many of us hesitate to call an intentional foul in this situation because it is an unpopular and poorly understood call by the fans in the stands. When the intention of the foul is to stop the play, then not calling it gives the offending team exactly what they were looking for and therefore gives them a clear advantage at that point of the contest. It seems to me that we should all be calling more of these intentional fouls in this circumstance.
