I just got back from Mexico and Sprint is trying to charge me $100 for roaming data. I made sure that data was turned off as soon as I stepped off the plane. I rebooted a couple of times while there and confirmed data was off after each reboot. Trying to figure out if I should fight this or not...

$100 for data roaming is a lot, even for Sprint.
I just had the same situation, except I got my bill and it worked for me. I was in Canada- I called to find out what the cost for International voice/data roaming was and to see if they had a plan for it. They did, but it wasn't worth it for the short time I would be there. I ended up with $20 in voice charges and $0 in data. I created a profile where Data and Beam were both turned off. I made sure to turn off the Weather update on roaming option. I even turned off all my sms services/notifications.
If you are sure, argue with them. Even if you're wrong, you can show good faith and they'll probably know at least part of it off of the bill.
Good luck.
