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:

    I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.
    John Updike (b. 1932)

    Show me a character whose life arouses my curiosity, and my flesh begins crawling with suspense.
    Fawn M. Brodie (1915–1981)
