If you're planning on watching football on cable after the storm, you may be waiting for a while. Here in Punta Gorda we still don't have Comcast back -- 33 days and still waiting.
I would add to your hurricane kit list -- a small TV with an antenna, preferable one that doesn't use 12 "D" batteries. Even if you have to wait for the power to come back on to use it, it will be better than no TV.
Also, because I depend on cable for my internet connection, I have had to switch to dial-up. Wal-Mart (among others) has a free CD that will get you back on-line once your power & phone are restored.
In my area of Punta Gorda that was 10 days after Charley.
