"I want to send an apology to the legend Janet Jackson. We were supposed to close it out in Boston. She had to postpone her show. I hope she sees this. I apologize for that" -- Celtics F Jayson Tatum, following the team’s Game 6 win against the Hawks to advance to the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Jackson had to postpone last night’s schedule concert in State Farm Arena to tonight after the Hawks' Game 5 win ("Celtics-Hawks," TNT, 4/27).

"We're upset. We're feeling every emotion in the book from rage to disappointment. We've done the exact opposite of what we set out to do, in terms of regaining our fans' confidence and trust" -- White Sox GM Rick Hahn, on the team’s disappointing 7-19 start (ESPN.com, 4/27).

"The first round of the NFL Draft aired tonight here in ABC. A special welcome to those who watched it and to keep you interested in our show, every 20 minutes I’m going to announce a name and a college and then I’ll hand someone a hat. The draft is fun. We get our first look at the young men we’ll be cursing at every Sunday" -- ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel ("Jimmy Kimmel Live," ABC, 4/27).
