I'll be listing songs in 4 quadrants.
Green Hill: Classic Tracks(Sonic 1 - Sonic Schoolhouse)
Chemical Plant: Adventure Tracks(Sonic Adventure - Sonic Chronicles)
Sky Sanctuary: Modern Tracks(Sonic Unleashed - Sonic at the Olympic Games)
Speed Highway: Vocal Tracks(from any Sonic media)
Note: If someone recommends a song that does not have a remix, I'll just put in the regular song. Also, I don't want it to be limited to just music from Sonic games. Sonic X, Sonic Boom, OK KO, Lego Dimensions, Sonic Robo Blast, Sonic OVA, Sonic Movie, you name it, I'll add it. I'll premiere it at 8/9, so now's your chance to list your favorites. I will only play songs recommended.
I'll also plan on using vocals for Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy Rose, Omochao, and the Chao. I plan on using their modern voice cast(Travis Willingham for Knuckles and Laura Bailey for Omochao) because I have over 3,000 voice clips for them each. This is an hour so I need as much as voice clips as possible.
Edit: If nobody comments, I can't do the video since nobody will care, so please upvote this post!
Edit Again: I was planning on doing it tonight, but I got the comments an hour before my deadline, so I'm going to have to upload it tomorrow in the afternoon. Until then, I can get more music requests to add. I'm gonna add in my own as well.

Davis said, paraphrasing: As the system grows, it becomes an even more powerful pass. It could literally be "the Clark County Pass."
At another point, he says "arguably this might be the cheapest form of public transit."
I believe this is the first discussion of a pass model, where you can buy a day/week/month of unlimited Loop trips like you would a bus pass. Interesting to see the line get blurred between "Underground Uber" and Public Transit. A month-long pass would be a great way to make the Las Vegas Loop affordable for local residents and workers, while also getting more revenue/profit margin from someone just visiting for a weekend.
Definitely worth watching the full presentation.

That's the ranking of 10 year RAPM (regularized adjusted plus-minus) from 2002 to 2011. For anyone who doesn't know what RAPM is, it basically looks at a player's plus-minus every single possession of every single game over the time frame, and then adjusts it based on who his teammates were on the floor and who the defenders were on the floor, and adds it all up in some complex statistical analysis to estimate a player's impact. There's no box score stats whatsoever when calculating RAPM.
Long-term multiyear RAPM is considered the gold standard of NBA advanced stats and all modern advanced stats are built upon it. Since it's an objective calculation using solely plus-minus on a possession by possession basis with no box score stats whatsoever, it's considered the least biased way to evaluate a player's impact. Of course, no stat is without its faults, and even this 10 year time frame can underrate players who were developing in the beginning (like Dirk, Chris Paul, Lebron) or aging at the end (Tim Duncan, Ray Allen). Also just to note that this is only regular season over this time frame.
Here's the source: https://sites.google.com/site/rapmstats/10-year-rapm. I only wanted to look at offense for this post.
Tied 1st: Kobe Bryant/Lebron James,
2nd: Dwayne Wade,
3rd: Steve Nash,
4th: Chris Paul,
5th: Manu Ginobli,
6th: Baron Davis,
7th: Antawn Jamison,
8th: Jason Kidd,
Tied 9th: Dirk Nowitzki/Ray Allen,
10th: Chauncey Billups
Anything interesting from these rankings? Anything that pops out? I think pertaining to Kobe Bryant the results are interesting as often in the current day there seems to be some people who portray Kobe Bryant as an inefficient scorer compared to other all-time greats when in reality his offensive impact was unparalleled during his time. His shot creation ability on very high volume on good efficiency along with his playmaking was clearly extremely efficient offense. Seeing Baron Davis here is also a big surprise. Ginobli is also somewhat surprising but most people who watched him play can attest to just how potent his offense was. He was James Harden before James Harden.
Seeing guys like Antawn Jamison, Baron Davis, Jason Kidd ranked above Dirk (I must add that they're very slightly above him) is a headscratcher, but when you look at a 6 year RAPM from 2006 to 2011, Dirk's offense is ranked 3rd, so clearly Dirk had improved a ton from 2002 to 2006.
Something that I thought was interesting to note was t

I know the Vancouver Grizzlies had a lot of things not going their way that ultimately lead to their relocation to Memphis, but it could be reasonably argued that the deathknell was Steve Francis forcing his way out of Vancouver before playing a game for them. Now, we can talk (and probably agree) about how Steve Francis was immature, not a team player, should have accepted being drafted by Vancouver, was selfish, etc. all day until we're blue in the face. But one thing he did do was make it very clear that he had no interest in going to Vancouver, made clear weeks before the draft by him and his agent.
So what if the Grizzlies just...didn't draft him. What if they just drafted Baron Davis, a skilled player who played the same position who was picked by Charlotte right after Francis?
This is a "what if" I think about from time to time, and wonder how things would have gone differently. Now, it's very possible that things play out a similar way, with Baron Davis not wanting to play in Vancouver and forcing his way out. But it's also possible that he stays there and has a similar, yet less impactful, effect on the Grizzlies that Vince Carter had on the Raptors - a talented name and All-Star level player who could bring credibility to the team (the level of talent between the two was obviously degrees apart). Or it could just end up somewhere in the middle where Baron Davis's tenure in Vancouver is similar to Damon Stoudamire's tenure in Toronto.
This "what if" scenario is also different from other scenarios regarding drafting decisions by teams, whether Team A should have picked Player Y instead of Player X. A lot of these are done through hindsight that is influenced by subsequent injury troubles (Oden, Fultz), an unexpected talent level or impact from players (Donovan Mitchell), Not drafting a more talented player because of position conflicts (Blazers drafting Sam Bowie instead of Jordan because they already had Clyde Drexler), or just poor front office analysis that lead to drafting a bust (the list is long). But in 1999, the Grizzlies had much more of a certainty about Steve Francis, because he flat out said he didn't want to play for them, so this isn't even complete hindsight speculation, but rather the team simply ignoring an obvious sign that they were making the wrong decision.
So yeah there are my longwinded unorganized thoughts on this. I think there's a good chance that if Vancouver drafts Ba
