FT:
The Miami FC 2 puts three past Duluth FC and advances to the NPSL National Final!!!

 

​

 

FC Motown to host the NPSL championship next weekend. They beat Portland 2-1 scoring the winning goal in added time during extra time.

 

Man these guys are good, seems like they should be playing at a higher level.

 

I think that FC Motown is going to give them a serious run for their money

Ya could still have half a season left to play in the USL but ya know, ego.

 

I expect they're paid. Even though it comes under the USASA NPSL it's semi-pro.

Semi.

Pro.

Is.

Not.

A.

Thing.

Regardless of the level of remuneration, pro is pro. Even really low pay is pay.

That said, there's nothing preventing an NPSL team from being ostensibly professional, as long as it doesn't use NCAA players. And if some teams in a league pay players and others don't, that's not semi-pro, either.

Which, again, is not a thing. It's a shorthand (like "fourth division") that is not only incorrect and imprecise, but also clouds the issue and is misleading.
