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 esteem it the happiness of this country that its settlers, whilst they were exploring their granted and natural rights and determining the power of the magistrate, were united by personal affection. Members of a church before whose searching covenant all rank was abolished, they stood in awe of each other, as religious men.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“... life is moral responsibility. Life is several other things, we do not deny. It is beauty, it is joy, it is tragedy, it is comedy, it is psychical and physical pleasure, it is the interplay of a thousand rude or delicate motions and emotions, it is the grimmest and the merriest motley of phantasmagoria that could appeal to the gravest or the maddest brush ever put to palette; but it is steadily and sturdily and always moral responsibility.”
—Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911)
