Robbie Gould - Personal Life

Personal Life

Despite the misleading spelling of his surname, "Gould" is pronounced "gōld", just like gold, prompting many announcers to dub him "Robbie Gould is gold", "Solid Gould" or "Good as Gould" after successful field goals.

His good friend and teammate Patrick Mannelly facilitates every field goal and extra point he kicks as the Bears' long snapper.

His younger brother, Chris Gould, is a kicker in the Arena Football League, formerly for the Chicago Rush and presently (as cited above) for the Arizona Rattlers. His cousin Brandon Thomas Gould was an offensive lineman for Bethune-Cookman University before his graduation in 2010.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    It is ... pathetic to observe the complete lack of imagination on the part of certain employers and men and women of the upper-income levels, equally devoid of experience, equally glib with their criticism ... directed against workers, labor leaders, and other villains and personal devils who are the objects of their dart-throwing. Who doesn’t know the wealthy woman who fulminates against the “idle” workers who just won’t get out and hunt jobs?
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    Sometimes I think of life as a process where everybody is discouraging and taking everybody else down a peg or two.
    Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
