Firefox takes too long opening some websites

Firefox takes way too long in opening certain websites. I've tried refreshing, safe mode, and even uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. Nothing helps. Specific websites are redsfans.proboards.com and www.baseballpress.com/lineups.

Google Chrome opens them just fine, but I'd rather use Firefox because it feels more secure.

Any ideas on what else I can do?

Thanks for the help in advance,

I don't know what it was, but it seems to have fixed itself on its own. Maybe it was just in mood.
