So regardless of what players say their intentions were, the act of intentionally disrespecting the flag is going to be viewed as disrespectful to those that served with that Flag on their uniforms. 

Not to all military members. Some believe that protection of the American people and their rights (rather than the flag) are synonymous to their service. Some believe that they fought for reasons such as equal treatment for all Americans, and protection of constituational rights, rather than tradition and flag idolatry.
