The Dallas Cowboys are Team Pacquiao.

While it was a busy night for the Cowboys on Thursday, team owner Jerry Jones found time in his jam-packed schedule to send a handwritten letter to Manny Pacquiao, wishing him luck for his big fight against Floyd Mayweather.

In the letter, Jones said Pacquiao is a credit to the sport of boxing and that the Cowboys are in his corner.

Pacquiao, who was seen scoffing down a big meal before his all-important weight-in, received the letter on Friday and posed with it for a picture.

The fight will soon be here.
