Butt of controversy: Jets' Isaiah Crowell a mercurial talent

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- When Isaiah Crowell scored his second touchdown last Thursday night on national TV, his old college coach did some crowing on social media.

"The CROW got as much talent as any RB in the NFL," former Alabama State coach Reggie Barlow said on his Facebook page, posted at 9:23 p.m.

And then ...

Crowell punctuated No. 2 with No. 2. He pretended to defecate in the end zone, then wiped his rear end with the ball and fired it into the crowd. The crude celebration, which resulted in an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, overshadowed the touchdown itself.
