J. D. Salinger is the recluse author of the novel "The Catcher in the Rye".

In 1943, the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League was formed. The idea of this league was to maintain in the public eye while many men were away helping their country win World War II. The league, which lasted until 1954, inspired the 1992 film "A League of Their Own", which told a fictional account of the league's first season.

Are you sure it's a parody of the Toxic video? That is, anything specific in it?

Anyhow, don't also forget two other things: -It's asked why she didn't marry a backup dancer (e.g. Kevin Federline) -The end credits, at least what Fox broadcast of them, did in fact sound like a Toxic knockoff, though I don't recall it being heard in the episode.
