Was this a display of poor sportmanship?

I don't understand this mentality at all. I would much rather get crushed than to know my opponent had to put their "foot on the brake" as to not run up the score. I don't want any mercy. If I'm that bad, I need to know it and learn from it. Having someone hold back on you, is way more humiliating. It means I couldn't even compete with you when you weren't even trying. I want to face the best of the best, every time. If you can't give me you're all, then what's the point?

The point is being a good sport, something that our world could use a lot more of. If you keep throwing the ball while up 7 touchdowns in a high school game then you are an [BLEEP] hole and should absolutely be removed from your position because you are teaching the wrong lessons to impressionable kids. Damn, what happened to common sense and decency in people? These aren't professionals, they're kids, so yeah, kick the guys when they're down and rub their faces in the dirt, that's what we should all be about.
