"You don't follow guys home, but just from what you hear I think it's closer to 70 percent," Magic guard Derek Harper said. Marijuana is not covered by the league's substance-abuse policy. Commissioner David Stern has said he would like to have a drug policy that includes marijuana. The players union has resisted a maryuana policy, saying all its members shouldn't come under increased scrutiny because of the transgressions of a few players. Three players Allen Iverson, Isaiah Rider and Marcus Camby were involved in marijuana-related cases during the summer.

"I think you can see we came to play. United is a fine team and a deserving champion." "Let's celebrate a great day for professional soccer in this country," said United coach Bruce Arena, the famed college coach and now winner of the first two MLS Cups. "Who would have envisioned five years ago that this would have happened? I'm happy for our team, but I'm also happy for MLS." United captain and midfielder John Harkes put another spin on the game and result: "What we've accomplished this year with D.C.

Rain hampered some of the art that might have been seen on a dry field, but the game did not lack action. United never trailed against Colorado, the MLS's poorest team a year ago. But the Rapids, who finished fourth in the West, made things Interesting after falling behind 2-0 in the second half. They replaced a defender with an attacking player, Adrian Paz, who from a sharp angle in the 75th plate-glass window after the man tossed a glass oficeathim.

But figuratively, it didn't rain on either D.C. United's or the MLS's "parade." Heavily favored United won its second-straight MLS Cup, defeating the cellar-to-not-quite-stellar Colorado Rapids, 2-1, before 57,431 noisy, drenched fans. The crowd was 581 shy, likely because of the poor weather, of setting a record for any event at RFK Stadium. But maybe just as importantly, this game in the rain, which was not as bad as that for last fall's first MLS Cup in Foxboro, became another showcase for a sport trying to succeed at the professional level in this country.

"I was entertained.

You don't respect me.

I hope you're hurt." The 20-year-old patron, Jorge Lugo, was treated at a hospital for a minor cut to his upper right arm. Barkley was charged with aggravated battery and resisting arrest without violence, police said. He was jailed for five hours before being released on $6,000 bond. Barkley, who has been involved in several incidents in bars and nightclubs during the past five years, said he had never met Lugo and that Lugo threw the glass of ice at him unprovoked. "I'm going to defend at all times.

I've made that clear in my years in the NBA," Barkley said yesterday. "If you bother me, I'm going to whup you." The fight began as the bar was clearing out. Barkley told police that Lugo threw a glass of ice at him and three women who were sitting at his table. Barkley chased Lugo to the front of the bar, where an off-duty officer tried to intervene. But Barkley picked up Lugo and threw him through the window, the police report said.

"He lifted that kid and flung him like he was a toy and threw him into the window. He broke the whole glass," witness Jerry Colon said. Barkley, however, said it was more like a push and Lugo fell back into the window. In last night's exhibition game in Orlando, Barkley was ejected midway through the fourth quarter after he sent the ball flying into the stands with a motion like an underhand volleyball serve. DRUGS: Marijuana smoking and heavy drinking are rampant in the NBA, involving 60 percent to 70 percent of the players, the New York Times reported.

The estimate is based on statements made to the newspaper by players, former players, agents and executives in more than two dozen interviews. One agent said the figure may actually be higher.

Stewart ingly for a tying goal, although fortuitously dodging several United counterattacks that could have iced the win.

When it was over, the game had produced three superb goals; 32 shots, 18 on target; 15 goalkeeper saves of the slippery ball; 16 potentially dangerous corner kicks, not to mention two apparent takedowns of United forwards in the penalty box that referee Brian Hall did not call. United, which shot for the first time a mere 25 seconds into the game, led 1-0 at halftime, with Jaime Moreno, the game's most valuable player, finishing in the 37th minute a smoothly executed example of the team's ability to attack quickly and with high skill. Defender David Vaudreuil began the play in his half of the field, capturing a loose ball and touching a quick pass to attacking midfielder Tony Sanneh near the center stripe. Sanneh dribbled 30 yards to the righthand corner of the box, where he squared a crisp pass that ran across the box near its top where two teammates were moving goalward. Forward Raul Diaz Arce, in the middle, looked as if he would be the shooter, but he let the ball run to his left, where Moreno took it, circled tightly to avoid a defender and slotted a low shot past Rapids' goalkeeper Marcus Hahnemann.

United's second goal came in the 68th minute on another quick sequence that began outside the penalty area. Midfielder Richie Williams touched a nice pass to Harkes on the left side. Harkes moved a step or two upfield to avoid a defender, then arced a cross to the middle of the box for Sanneh, who headed it hard past Hahnemann from about 10 yards. The win meant the Rapids still have not beaten United in regulation play in two years, although they won a shootout Aug. 5.

United has one game left, the championship match in the U.S. Open Cup against MLS's Dallas Burn. That game will be played in Indianapolis on Wednesday night. United won both the Open and the first MLS Cup last fall. NOTE: About 50 people were treated for minor injuries after some railings collapsed at RFK Stadium as fans celebrated United's victory, police said.

District of Columbia police spokesman J. C. Stamps said two people were taken in ambulances to nearby hospitals, but everyone else was treated on-sight. Fans apparently followed players to the north side of the stadium and the railings couldn't hold the weight of so many people.

"I think I'd get bored with golf if I'm not always coming back," Glas-' son said after winning for the seventh time in 14 years. "I always consider injuries as a new challenge." Glasson, who missed most of 1996 after surgery to repair a detached tendon in his right arm, earned a spot in next week's Tour Championship by earning $324,000 and moving into the top 30 on the money list. He did it by shooting a final-round 6-under-par 66 that put him at 20-under 340 for five rounds on three desert golf courses. Two shots off Duffy Waldorfs lead opening the final round, Glasson birdied the last three holes on the front nine to tie for the lead and finally took it over with a two-putt birdie on the par-5 16th. Glasson then parred the final two holes for his first win since the 1994 Phoenix Open.

Eastwood, 51, a three-time winner on the PGA Tour who won the rain-shortened Bell Atlantic Classic in May for his first senior title, had a 12-under 204 total on the Serrano Country Club course. Chi Chi Rodriguez, 62, who finished at 2-over 218, felt dizzy after the round and showed signs of high blood pressure. But after relaxing for a few minutes, he returned to sign autographs.

He chipped in for birdie Saturday and chipped in for par yesterday. There was actually a putt in there, but it was a 15-footer downhill that rolled off the surface of the treacherous green with its undulations and ridges that slope back to front.

The Springfield (Va.) Country Club pair did not make a birdie in struggling to a 3-over-par 73. But after opening with a 63 Saturday, it was good for 136, and a one-stroke edge on Pat Tallent-Bill Musto, from Lowes Island Club in Sterling, 66-71137. Steve Thomas-Dan Hoffman of Crofton Country Club had the day's low round in the championship division with a 69 and finished third, 70-69139.
