I saw the Yankee game last week and they zoomed in on Manny during "God Bless America" where he adjusted himself and hocked a nasty loogie. What's worse?

In my opinion God Bless America shouldn't be played. And it's not because I'm not religious (because I am).
As for Carlos Delgado not standing, is this a normal occurance? Or is was it a one time event?
