1. To be overlooked despite outstanding performance due to being overshadowed by teammates thanks to the ignorance of the media, such what frequently happens to San Francisco Giants pitcher Matt Cain after pitching a good game.

2. Alternatively, it can refer to having one's good work spoiled by teammates' incompetence, such as when Matt Cain gives up only two runs but nonetheless loses due to a lack of run support.
Example 1: I discovered a cure for cancer, but my boss took all the credit. I got Cained.

Example 2: I spent months setting up the experiments, but my labmate Cained me by accidentally deleting all the data.

Being cained is similar to being fucked, but used more by the town heads of Liverpool, UK that like to get off your barnett and are experiencing a very bad comedown the next morning.
Example 1:
Jordan: Come out for a bit lad it's a nice day

Tom: Swerve that lad I am cained here you know

Example 2:
Dave: Come to mine for a bit lad

Tom: Go on sound lad but you better have a joint waiting for me I am cained and I need to sort me head out

Example 3:
Ryan: Lad those Formby heads were devouring the beak the little weirdos, haha they will be cained now like.

When someone makes a rhetorical and redundant statement about a situation to seem humorous and intelligent. Instead of coming off as such, it usually reduces the intellect of the person making the statement. This is often, and efficiently done by the semi-retarded and socially inept character Horatio Caine on CSI Miami. The usual result is that the person hearing this will roll their eyes, sigh, and change the channel. Also referred to as Tautology.
Suspect #1 - " I swear I didn't touch her!"
H. Caine - "You don't have to touch someone to shoot them."
Suspect #2 - "Shit, dude... you just got Cained!!"

Caine's have awesome personalities. Though they can be a little overly sensitive at times. Everyone loves Caine. Caine's are also very attractive. Not only for their looks, but for their personalities as well. Caines are HILARIOUS. They really know how to have a good time and are usually very friendly. In relationships, Caine's are usually very faithful, but tend to flirt a lot with other people. Caine's usually have a lot of people crushing on them.
