            This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13-D (this "Amendment No. 1")
is being jointly filed by the following persons (collectively, the
"Reporting Persons") pursuant to Rule 13d-(1)(f) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"):

      (1) Sneaker Guarantee LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
      ("Sneaker"), by virtue of its direct beneficial ownership of 926,355
      shares of Common Stock (the "Shares"), and 926,355 warrants, each of
      which has a five-year term and represents the right to purchase
      .99701626 of a share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $21.59
      per share, subject to antidilution adjustment (the "Warrants").

      (2) Thomas H. Lee Equity Fund III, L.P., a Delaware limited
      partnership ("Equity Fund III"), by virtue of its direct beneficial
      ownership of an 83.4% equity interest in Sneaker, which represents a
      majority controlling interest in Sneaker;

      (3) THL Equity Advisors III Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts
      limited partnership ("Advisors III"), as sole general partner of
      Equity Fund III and as sole Manager of Sneaker; and

      (4) THL Equity Trust III, a Massachusetts business trust ("Trust
      III"), as sole general partner of Advisors III.

            This Amendment No. 1 amends, to the extent set forth herein,
Item 5 of a statement on Schedule 13-D dated July 2, 1998, originally filed
by the Reporting Persons (the "Existing Schedule 13-D"), relating to the
Common Stock of JFF. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 1 and not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in
the Existing Schedule 13-D.


ITEM 5.     INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

            Sneaker redeemed some of the Units in Sneaker held by Equity
Fund III and others and certain former holders of securities of Sneaker
Stadium, Inc. purchased those Units from Sneaker. As a result of these
transactions, the beneficial ownership interest held in Sneaker by Equity
Fund III has decreased from 85.8% to 83.4%.

            In addition, as contemplated by an earlier transaction, Sneaker
has granted to certain former subordinated creditors of Sneaker Stadium,
Inc. the right to the economic value realized by Sneaker with respect to
the disposition of 20,000 of the Warrants (or the Common Stock underlying
such Warrants).

            After reasonable inquiry and to the best knowledge and belief
of each of the undersigned, each such person certifies that the information
set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
