I A1 taunts the defense at the 10 yard line going in for a score does the TD count or do you enforce the penalty at the 10 to make it first & 10 at the 25? Or is the unsportsmanship penalty enforced on the try?

In KY, we are to count the TD and assess the unsportsmanship penalty on the succeeding spot: in this case, the try.

Matters not what state you are in, the TD counts with the 15 yard penalty on the TRY (succeeding spot).

Got a "Funny book"? i.e the Simplified and Illustrated manual?
In 2003, the page is 80, top of page for rule 9-5-1a. This is your play.

Canadian Ruling
 
here in the GWN, this is Objectionable Conduct, and is penalized 10 yards on the convert or on the resulting kick-off, at the option of the non-offending team. The TD stays.
