Sprint: cannot send text messages, only recieve

[Baffles]

None of our phones can send text messages. I can receive them just fine, but if I send it it just says not sent, put in drafts. My mom and sister cannot send either.

Also, Sprint service dropped out for a few minutes and I tried to make a call. Came up to a Verizon error message saying I couldn't be authenticated. Sprint came back and I could make calls just fine. This is upstate NY, anyone know if something fishy is going on?

[edit]
Gives me "Your text message cannot be sent. Saved in drafts" If I hit details, it gives me error code 97.
