Blind golfer's story resonates with many, including Aaron Rodgers

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Aaron Rodgers didn't understand.

"There's no story, dude," the Green Bay Packers quarterback replied via a text on Wednesday afternoon. "He's an amazing story. I was just golfing with a friend of mine."

The text exchange had been about Jeremy Poincenot, with whom Rodgers had crossed paths while playing Pelican Hill Golf Club in Newport Beach, Calif on Sunday. And Rodgers was right about this much: Poincenot is an amazing story.

Yesterday I got lined up 4 a drive by @NFL MVP @AaronRodgers12 - awesome guy & pleasure meeting him!
