Sports mode is controlled by the Transmission control module, if you are unable turn off the sports mode you likely have a transmission issue which must be diagnosed and repaired.
I have a 91 accord coupe with an automatic transmission. The letter S on the dash represents the "Sports Shift" designation for the transmission. There should be a small button on the side of your shifter that controls this feature. It sounds like your depressing the button with realizing it.
This is your transmission control unit telling you there is a problem. I have another post here (http://www.fixya.com/cars/t5554380-92_honda_accord_d4_light_flashing) with details on how to diagnose. This link says "flashing D4 light" but the issues it the same. 90-91 accords have flashing S lights for TCU errors, and 92-93 have flashing D4 lights.
It sounds like your tcm (transmission control unit) is going bad or it already is, at times when this happens you may also experience the trans not shifting or it gets stuck on a higher gear and will have to shift manually from 1-D.Usually this happens when it's really bad.
The "S" light indicates the TCU or TCM which is located on the passenger side leg area. it has been a problem do to manufacturing problems. it is about a $100.00 replacement cost
best place to purchase will be ebay with exchange.
