  • We completely support Commissioner Silver's decision today regarding Clippers owner Donald Sterling, and praise him for his prompt investigation and action.

  • The Commissioner was correct to ban Mr. Sterling from all official NBA business, to levy the stiffest allowable fine, and we will support his recommendation to press for Mr. Sterling to relinquish his ownership of the Los Angeles Clippers franchise.

  • Discrimination and prejudice of any kind have no place in sports or in our society.

  • I've said this over the years publicly - this is not a lucrative business. My goal every year is to break even with the White Sox.

  • When I look back, I did what I had to do for business and then fit family life into it.

  • Paul Konerko is one of the greatest players in White Sox history, not only for his strength and performance on the field, but also for his heart and leadership off the field.

  • Basketball is a game. Baseball is a religion. Baseball is American.

  • I only had one player in my 33 years of sports that couldn't be traded. He wore No. 23 - and 45 when he played baseball.

  • When I gave up law to go into real estate, my mother said, 'How can you give up the law?' But she lived long enough to see the Bulls win all six championships. She would wear all six pendants at the same time. She could barely stand up.

  • I never believed in pushing my kids. My dad was very unhappy I wasn't going to be a doctor, but I couldn't stand to see the sight of blood. And I wanted to be a lawyer since I was in seventh or eighth grade.

  • I think every parent takes more pleasure in seeing their child succeed than seeing themselves succeed.
