Instead of this structure mysite.com/?category=sports. why dont you try the permalink structure like this mysite.com/category/sports? Structure which i mentioned also good for SEO.. :)

Login into your Wordpress Dashboard Go to Settings -> Permalinks

This is not a proper solution, but it may help you somewhat

$category_id = get_cat_ID($_REQUEST['category']);
