This is a wonderful act of human kindness, but let's be accurate, this has nothing to do with sportsmanship. Plain and simple it is a good-hearted act of charity towards a person in our society who has a challenging life.

Oh good grief...of course it is. Part of ortsmanship is courtesy and a concern for the well being of an opponent...seems like that is exactly what took place in this story.
