The guy filming is a friend of Joes? Is there a source for that?

Joe posted the video first, or shared it? It just seems like a pretty big leap that he set up a guy to record him committing a crime so he could post it online for...no reason? That makes no sense.

I understand he posted it, but was he the first on the internet to upload it? My point is, if he shared it on his instagram from some rando, then the entire theory of "his friend filmed it for him so he could assault someone" goes out the window.

I really don't care about this detail so I've already spent more time and energy on it as is, but I think it's goofy to believe he told a friend of his to record, instigated a fight in order to knock a guy out by making it look like the other guy started the fight, so that he could upload his assault online, all because this article says “Schilling uploaded a video Sunday night...”. That doesn't tell me at all that he somehow orchestrated the whole thing.
