On Saturday I went and visited two Local Card Shops that I know of. I traded a bunch of stuff at one picked up a Rudy Fernandez auto card for my son and some decals for our car. When I went to the shop really close to my house I picked up 4 packs of Topps Pro Debut, hoping to get some of the Padres farmhands. I set two packs aside for my Birthday and Christmas. I didn't get a single Padre or even anyone I heard of. I like the cards except for most of them you can't tell them who the player is affiliated with. It is real small print in the data box. Here are the two packs, if there is anyone you want let me know.

Those look pretty cool. I wish I could find some around here.
