In today's world, it feels like there are very few moments when the good guys win. Wars on television and political smearing from the left and right just leave us with a bad taste in our mouth. Thankfully, amongst the ashes of media mush, there are moments of triumph you can't help but recognize and feel good about. One moment of triumph in particular came when the great Tom Brady overruled the NFL's 4-game suspension with the help of federal courts. In the end, the suspension didn't hold up because the NFL refused to share their notes and they didn't notify Brady of his suspension. Naturally, when it comes to monumental rulings such as this one, Twitter users lose their minds. Here is what a few people in the public eye are saying about Brady's newfound freedom. The first is Presidential candidate Donald Trump.
Trump congratulated Brady on his federal victory and even called him a friend.
Congratulations to Tom Brady on yet another great victory- Tom is my friend and a total winner!

Next up is Donnie Wahlberg. Wahlberg was of course ecstatic that Brady got off. He also made sure to bring up the point that the Patriots should be getting their draft picks back.
Happy for Tom Brady & @patriots fans everywhere! Now how bout we do something about getting our stolen draft picks back? #GoPats #FreeBrady — Donnie Wahlberg (@DonnieWahlberg) September 3, 2015
In order to "protect the integrity of the game", the one doing the protecting must act with integrity for the game himself. #FreeBrady

Daniel Tosh also spoke up, but he had a simpler response than most people. The Tosh.0 star just wondered how Brady ended up cheating to get out of this one.
wonder how tom brady cheated this time. — daniel tosh (@danieltosh) September 3, 2015
If you had to pick a favorite response for irony's sake, maybe Barry Bonds is the frontrunner. Both men have shown valor under unscrupulous odds in their respective playing fields.
Congratulations to #TomBrady on today's decision. Best of luck this season, Tom.

Last but certainly not least is Bill Simmons' response. The Sports Guy and Boston native might be Brady's number one fan and was happy that the NFL's "smear campaign" did not take down his Brady. He thanked America for this victory.
I learned today that, sometimes, a poorly planned and executed sting operation/witch hunt/smear campaign does NOT hold up in federal court. — Bill Simmons (@BillSimmons) September 3, 2015
God bless America.
