Sam Wen says that the current crop of pro players, when youths in the 1970s, ran all around the world for international competitions, bearing the burden of national pride and struggling for medals. Their growth process was somewhat distorted, leaving them with many habits such as enjoying special privileges, wanting advantages, and having a little too much self-admiration. The players must of course work harder at growing up.
如今在職棒界的這批球員，在七○年代到處打國際賽的年代，背負著太多的民族主義，凡事以奪標為目的，成長過程中多少曾被扭曲，也留下許多享特權、要好處，或是自尊自大的習性，球員的成長也有段路要走。
