Actually, no. This league EMPHASIZES sportsmanship and running up the score is frowned upon. It was obvious this team was MUCH better than their opponent. It isn't unusual for teams to do this when they are up by 21 or more. The league also mandates players get a certain number of plays. I think they were trying to get players into the game who still needed plays.

Does your crew have a signal so you are prepared for it?
