With fundamentally different ideas as what constitutes "second rate" in Brazilian soccer, I think we're gonna have to agree to disagree ...

Guys like Juninho, the one who played for Lyon, is not "second rate" IMHO. The ones playing for Benfica and Porto aren't either. It's the player, not the league, even when the league produces players who move on to wealthier pastures in England, Spain and Italy.
