I listen to Prime Time Sports everyday and the TO media and fan base crap all over him. Flames fans crap all over him since he left. Vancouver and Edmonton fans hate him and crap on him from his time here. I imagine Sens, Jets and Canadians fans hate him if for no other reason then he is the Captain of the Leafs.
I just am wondering who is overrating him now? If he is so overrated who is it that is overrating him, because it isn't the Canadian media, isn't Canadian fans and I haven't seen/heard him plastered all over ESPN either.

Ummm...no. Overrating means to rate or appraise too highly. Clearly there are people who feel that others are rating or appraising Phaneuf too highly. As long as the people overrating Phaneuf exist, then he can still be considered overrated by
others. It's not that hard to figure out. This doesn't mean that there won't be people who think he's overrated, or that being considered overrated all of a sudden means that you are not...
For example if the argument is that Phaneuf is worth 7-7.5 million, and someone believes he is not worth that amount, then he would be considered overrated by that person. You obviously believe he is worth that amount, so you don't think he is overrated. Others would disagree and say you are overrating him. It's pretty simple really.
