disabling 'screen safe' feature..

On a SD receiver when watching the game mix channel Sunday Ticket I can't get the 'screen safe' feature to go away. It will temporarily disappear by hitting the ''dash' button twice but then it comes back after 15 minutes or so. Very annoying. Please tell me there is a way to fix this.

NBC

Saw a sign on NBC that there is a possibility that NBC may be dropped from Uverse TV. Negotiations are not going well between AT&T and NBC.  This is our favorite channel.  If it is dropped we will not have a choice but to go to another service provider.
