Shark has shown very little interest in signing an extension.

The guy has definitely said that he would like to sign a long term deal with the Cubs. He also wants to win.

He isn't going to give the Cubs a hometown discount. The Cubs haven't shown him they can win yet. They have traded other veteran pitcher that he has played with. If the Cubs decide to offer him a long contract worth a lot of money I think he would be willing to sign with them.

Exactly...so, why would he sign a lucrative contract with the Cubs when he can get that same contract for a team likely to contend? I realize he's said that he wants to sign a long term deal, but there's a good bit of lip service to that, IMO.
