My question is, would pumping the brakes before I started bleeding them have resulted in better pedal feel? In other words, did that initial pump of the brake pedal that went to the floor cause air to be introduced into the system? Should I re-bleed my brakes?

It shouldn't introduce air unless you emptied the reservoir. Make sure it is full.
