Card: #55 Chris Young

“ Good design, nice color scheme ” -BasketbalHQ

“ We just had this base design last week, and now the parallel. I like it in either border color. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Not a fan of this cards design but at least it has a Padre on it. ” -YoRicha

“ I like this version of the card. ” -cjjt

“ Pretty boring . . . Terrible border colors, which is unavoidable since it goes back to the Padres' colors . . . ” -georgecf

“ Back when a gold parallel was a gold parallel! ” -cynicalbuddha

“ Like the base set like the Gold parallel set. This is the way I think the gold parallels should be with the obvious border being gold, not just the foil elements or a single stamp. ” -captkirk42

“ Probably my favorites Topps design from the 2000s. I like the color balance a lot of this card. Nice use of the team colors on the gold bordered card. ” -BooguhRed

“ One of these days I'll finish my goal for completing the gold parallel set for 2008 Topps. Love these cards! ” -ketchupman36

“ Looks like a standard card to me. Gold variation looks okay, facsimile looks okay. Decently long writeup which is nice. ” -dollar guy

“ The down side (one of many, IMO) of Topps no longer having bordered base cards is that the Gold parallel is basically dead. And, once again, let me go on record stating that the '08 design is one of my favorite of that decade. ” -mkaz80

“ I like the base set better but overall this was a pretty decent design. ” -Phil

Can't say that I'm a fan of this style, the boader is far too big.
