Joe Mauer mocks Troy Polamalu's luxurious locks: Video of the day

Careful who you tease about their hair, Joe.

​Honestly, we were a little worried for Joe Mauer when we heard he was shooting a TV commercial for Head & Shoulders. Was the pride of St. Paul going to finally go Hollywood, and maybe mount a trusty steed like the Old Spice guy, and gallop through the breaking surf while running his fingers through his manly coif?

We are fretting no more.

Joe's filmed in a locker room, uncorking some classic jock snark over the 3-feet long locks of the Steeler's Troy Palamalu - until he realizes the NFL Defensive Player of the Year is standing right next to him. Oops. Good fun!
