“ I like Topps Total. Don't like trying to complete any of the sets even if it is just a team set, but I like the sets. ” -captkirk42

“ I really like Topps Total. The only chance to get cards of back up players. Great stuff! ” -cjjt

“ This is one of the many color variations for this set. I like the concept of Topps Total. It was a good set for team collectors to pursue. The set consisted of many players you won't find in other sets such as offensive linemen. For the record I like this card. ” -Brendan Barrick

“ Roman Oben is an NFL employee now IIRC ” -pugchump

“ usually im not a fan of multi player cards, but i really liked the topps total sets ” -Thunderfoot

“ Ah yes, Topps Total. The 2006 Chargers were amazing in the regular season and lost in the Divisional Round to the Patriots. I like the card, it's just the players shown are extremely irrelevant due to them being Offensive Linemen, although Nick Hardwick did make the Pro Bowl that year. ” -NickyCollects

Not usually a fan of multi-player cards but this one is actually well done. Bravo Topps.

Nick Hardwick is a great story.  Gave up football in 9th grade and focused on wrestling.  Won a state championship in wrestling, but did not play football his last 3 years of HS.  Walked on at Purdue and eventually earned a scholarship and was an All-Big Ten center.  Drafted by Chargers in the NFL and was an All-Pro.
