It depends on what you consider to be leagues. It's always a debatable topic in any country. Generally, anything after the League two is considered to be semi-pro. Same can be said in Germany (after 3 Bundesliga), Italy, Spain, etc.

MLS has a lot of goofy names. like Los Angeles Galaxy, New England Revolution, San Jose Earthquakes, Portland Timbers, Seatlle Sounders, jesus fuckkk. Toronto FC is the only normal name, all other teams have retard names. _________________ "i don't have pet peeves, i have major psychotic fucking hatreds"

Copa America has been really boring this far, I hope it gets better.
Tomorrow Chile plays Mexico sub22, try to watch it and see how good Alexis Sanchez is. He is probably playing in Barcelona next season, a 57+ million usd transfer. I told all of you before the World Cup that you should watch out for this guy, strong, fast, great at 1v1s, mad skills.

It hasn't really been boring, there was been some great plays and many chances. Brazil alone had about a dozen chances, there has just been a huge lack of scoring.
Why is Mexico playing their scrub team, a guess a way to develop their younger players?

They donīt usually play Copa America, and I think they are playing some Concacaf tournament that nobody cares about.
Today`s match should be good, Argentina vs Colombia. Also donīt forget to watch Chile vs Uruguay in a few days.

Mexico and Costa Rica are playing their "scrub" teams because Copa America is not their FIFA sanctioned tournament. The Gold Cup is CONCACAF's tournament, so club teams, by FIFA law, must let their players go. However, since Mexico and Costa Rica are participating in an event outside of their region, club teams do not have to let their players participate (The bigger sides normally don't--European leagues).
You have to keep in mind that club teams pay these players millions of Dollars/Euros/Pounds to develop and maintain. There is an insurance policy if the player gets injured, but it normally turns into a legal battle amongst the seperate entities. USA participated in the last Copa America and got dominated because we brought a scrub team. We weren't invited back, and instead Japan took our place. Japan had to pull out due to the earthquakes and Costa Rica took their place.
Many CONCACAF fans want Mexico and USA to join CONMEBOL (South America) and have the Caribbean Islands turn into their own Federation such as Oceania. There's been rumors of this happening for a long time, but there hasn't been enough support.
