Jim, If your front wheel bearings have significant wear or run-out,
then while you drive the rotors wobbling a tad will cause the pads
and pistons to retract too much, so the pedal requires much more
travel resulting in a spongy feel.
Also, rear brake adjustment needs to be set. You should have
3 or 4 clicks on the lever. More and the wheel cylinder pistons
likewise retract too much.
