Real estate company Century 21 makes its Super Bowl debut with an ad trumpeting the skills of its agents. A cool and collected redheaded agent is shown facing down three individuals intended to represent Smarts, Boldness, and Speed. Record-holding Olympic athlete Apolo Ohno is definitely fast, and Deion Sanders probably qualifies as bold, but something tells me the choice of Donald Trump as a symbol of intelligence might not sit well with some viewers.
