RIO DE JANEIRO -- Brazils interim President Michel Temer, who was loudly booed at the Olympic opening ceremony, wont have to face the same jeering crowds when the Rio Games end.His press office said Tuesday that he wont attend the closing ceremony, ending days of speculation after he told journalists last week that he should go. A presidential spokesperson told The Associated Press that its not protocol for a head of state to attend the farewell.Some Brazilian media are taking Temers expected absence as a diplomatic snub after Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said he would attend the closing ceremony to represent Tokyo, which is hosting the 2020 Summer Games.Rio organizing committee spokesman Mario Andrada said he hadnt been informed of Temers plans.We havent received this information officially, Andrada said. We cannot assess who will have the honor of receiving the prime minister.Temer has kept a low profile since taking over for the suspended President Dilma Rousseff in May. The closing ceremony Aug. 21 comes just a few days before the Brazilian senate is scheduled to vote on whether to impeach Rousseff.While Brazilians blame Rousseff for widespread corruption in her Workers Party and for steering the economy into its deepest recession in decades, they havent warmed to her replacement. From Day 1, the games have been marred by Brazilians bringing signs to venues reading Fora Temer (Out with Temer in English), a call for the removal of the politician whom many accuse of trying to gain power he could never have obtained at the ballot box.

With the regular season in the books, we turn to our SEC insiders to detail the biggest topics facing the conference heading into bowl season and the offseason.As usual, things revolve around the behemoth in Tuscaloosa. Can anyone close the gap on the Crimson Tide? How could that be done? And will a talented young crop of quarterbacks change the trajectory of the leagues play under center?How can teams close the gap on Alabama?Edward Aschoff: Well, I talked to an SEC head coach this week who said the best way to close the gap on Alabama is to stop trying to be Alabama. No SEC team can be like Alabama, not as long as Nick Saban is in Tuscaloosa. The coach literallly laughed at the idea of coaches trying to recruit like Alabama instead of devising their own recruiting plans and development methods.dddddddddddd. Trying to build like Alabama is a losing model. Alabama has cornered the market on that, so its all about being creative and building with your own brand. ?Sam Khan: Recruiting is always going to be the way, because the talent gap has to be closed. But I think it definitely has to be somebody who does something different, something aggressive and creative on both sides of the football. ' ' '
