OLTL Spin-off?

Has anyone else heard of the rumoured OLTL spin-off? I heard that they are leaning towards having it follow John McBain (aka the lame) on a case. Is anyone else excited that OLTL may get a spin-off but hugely disapointed that it could star John McBain? I mean there already is too much of him on OLTL, and the thought of following that dull character on a case for an hour gives me the creeps. Should OLTL go with the McBain thing or something else? If something else what would you do? I'd have the show focus on the OLTL characters that get ignored all the time, the funny ones like Roxy and Nigel, the quirky ones.
