Heroes for evermore... how winning the Sam Maguire will change Kerry lives

Overnight fame, acclaim in the community and a place in history books awaits Kingdom's all-conquering footballers It is doubtful any homecoming in GAA eclipses that which awaits the winners of an All-Ireland Championship title. The cacophony of noise which greeted Kerry's plundering of the Sam Maguire Cup last weekend struck a chord with every family in the county and laid the belief that runners-up Donegal can now take a leaf from the Kingdom's book and go the distance next year.

Fifteen of the leading lights in Ulster in the 2025 season… and the fearsome team they would make up

The 2025 inter-county season has come to an end and Belfast Telegraph Sport has taken on the unfavourable challenge of selecting the Ulster Team of the Year. Just to make things more difficult for ourselves, we also decided to put a three-player cap on each county, meaning that there can only be a maximum of three Gaelic footballers from any one team selected – apart from Donegal, who were awarded an extra name seeing as they won the provincial title and went the furthest in the All-Ireland series.

Mason Miller trade details: Padres get All-Star in deal with Athletics

Miller, 26, has struck out 14.2 batters per nine innings in his two full seasons as a reliever, and this year has posted a 1.01 WHIP while fanning 59 batters in 38 1/3 innings and nailing down 20 saves. The Padres also acquired left-hander JP Sears, a workmanlike back-end rotation presence who has a 4.95 ERA in 22 starts this season While Miller might have been seen as a franchise cornerstone as the A's make their way from Oakland to their Yolo County stopover in Sacramento all the way to Las Vegas, perhaps by 2028, the A's clearly saw too much upside in San Diego's return. San Diego paid a stiff price to pry Miller from the A's, sending them 18-year-old high Class A shortstop Leo DeVries, a consensus top five prospect in the game and the Padres' top trade chip. The Padres, meanwhile, are perched just three games behind the defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West, and hold the No. 3 NL wild card spot. Reports indicated the club might be willing to buy and sell this deadline, and perhaps flip All-Star closer Robert Suarez to gain payroll flexibility. Now, they have the roster latitude to do so. Or, they could keep Suarez and pair him with Miller alongside an utterly dominant bullpen featuring All-Stars Jason Adam and Adrian Morejon along with Jeremiah Estrada. ESPN reported that the Padres will also send RHP Braden Nett, RHP Henry Baez and RHP Eduarniel Nunez to the A's in the deal.
