NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — “Entourage” creator Doug Ellin, a Long Island kid, loves the Giants.
But he’s not too happy with their quarterback.
Why?
Ellin recently told Yahoo Sports’ Graham Bensinger that, years ago, Eli Manning reached out to him personally about wanting to appear on the show. Ellin proceeded to write the two-time Super Bowl MVP into a scene, he told the website, and sent in the script.
But he never heard back from Big Blue’s signal caller despite calling him repeatedly.
“I was going crazy,” Ellin told Yahoo Sports. “Beyond frustrating.”
Patriots quarterback Tom Brady ended up replacing Manning on the show.
