If you're wondering why there's a line of people waiting to get free water from a hand pump in an Illinois forest preserve, it's because of the benefits some people believe will come from drinking it.
As a lifelong St. Louis Cardinals baseball fan, I promised myself I wouldn't pass judgement until the off-season moves were over and spring training was about to begin. That moment is now and I have asked myself the question if the Cardinals have done enough to return to winning in 2024 and the answer is a complicated yes and no with a healthy dose of "we'll see".
